Transitions to rigid barrier, also known as bridge approaches, are a specially designed interface providing a smooth, snag-free transition between different types of safety barrier systems.
The transitions are designed for attachment directly to RamShield® Guardrail and feature thrie-beam guardrail supported by posts at reduced spacings which gradually increase the guardrail barrier stiffness prior to connecting to the rigid barrier.
The use of a transition reduces the potential for vehicle pocketing at the connection between the guardrail system and rigid barrier.
