Abstract (en)
An end anchor for a vehicle safety barrier comprises a block (28) of material having a front face (30) and a fixing point (38) for a rail (10) at one end thereof, the front face and/or the fixing point being arranged to dispose a rail attached to the fixing point at an angle to the front face. This has the advantage of simplicity in terms of construction and resilience to damage. The angled surface in combination with a rail attached to the fixing point will cause an impacting vehicle to be deflected from its path so as to strike the anchor with a glancing blow, at worst. A vehicle safety barrier is also provided, consisting of an elongate rail, a plurality of supports for the rail, and an end anchor as defined above for supporting an end section of the rail.
