Abstract (en)
A barrier system is formed with an array of barrier posts (1) comprising road cones (2) and bases (4) and carried by each of which barrier posts (1) is a rail locator (6) or (16) for carrying barrier rails (7). The rails (7) are coupled together by being received in a slot (11) of the locator (6) or (16) and the latter offsets the rails outwardly from the cone (2) so that the base (4) of the cone is substantially unobtrusive beyond the rails (7). The rail locator (6) or (16) may be modified to couple the rails together as a corner or T-junction and can include a hazard warning lamp. The barrier posts (1) may be stacked as a vertical column with integral rail locators (16). The invention is beneficial for visually handicapped persons who are guided by the rails (7) clear of the road cone bases (4). <IMAGE>
