Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1921211A1] The traffic guide unit (1), placed at the road edge, has a longitudinal guide plank (9) along the line of traffic flow (2). A number of vertical supports (4) are in the ground (3), on the side of the plank away from the traffic. At least two spaced horizontal tie rod anchors (24) stabilize the supports. A number of connecting anchors (27) lock the tie rods rigidly together across the traffic flow.
