Traffic Safety

  • Keep drivers at bay with a Heavy-Duty 28" Traffic Safety Cone with 4" & 6" Reflective Collars

    Aug 09, 2011

    When working at a construction site, it's important to keep vehicles and pedestrians out of the area and away from hazards and your workers. Equipping your worksite with rugged, all-weather Heavy-Duty 28" Traffic Safety Cones with 4" & 6" Reflective Collars is an excellent way to put up a protective barrier that keeps people safe.

    Heavy-duty traffic safety cones are one of the most important types of safety equipment for worksites. They can create space around the shoulder of a road, traffic lane, or any work area that may be dangerous. In the daytime, their bright orange color is immediately seen by drivers. At night, their two rows of reflective collars reflect headlights back to motorists to signal that they should slow down.

    The cones feature a heavy black base and weigh 8 pounds, which makes them light enough to be easily moved when a worksite changes locations and heavy enough to remain stable in winds. They meet the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) safety requirements, so supervisors can rest easy knowing that they've provided the best level of protection for their workers and others.
