Motivated By Driver Safety
NRA in-situ Concrete Median Barrier
Since the awarding of the first major contract on the Fermoy By-pass in 2004,
the construction of median barrier has become a very important activity for
O’Regan Slipform Kerbing Ltd. Providing a number of benefits over other cross
over restraints, in-situ concrete median barrier is maintenance
free when
contrasted with the previously more common steel alternatives.

Reducing Crash and Injury Risk
A fifty year maintenance free life is attainable by using this increasingly
popular installation. Design characteristics of the concrete barrier are
totally motivated by driver safety and the aversion of cross over to the
oncoming lanes. In the event of a collision, a car will be guided along
the smooth face of the barrier in the direction of traffic flow.
