A Guide to Delineator Blades and Bases

Importance of Delineators in Traffic Management

Delineators are an essential tool for traffic management, particularly in areas where visibility is a concern. These devices provide clear guidance and warning to drivers, especially during night-time or adverse weather conditions. By marking lanes, curves, and hazards, delineators help prevent accidents and ensure a smooth flow of traffic.

One of the key benefits of delineators is their ability to improve the visibility of roads. Whether it’s a busy highway or a quiet residential street, delineators enhance road safety by providing a clear visual reference for drivers. They act as a visual cue, helping travellers stay within their designated lanes and avoid potential collisions.

Common Applications of Delineator Blades and Bases

Delineators are commonly used in construction zones, roadwork areas, and parking lots to guide drivers and pedestrians.

Delineators can be placed along the edge of the road to mark lanes, curves, or hazards, or they can be used to establish temporary lane closures during construction or maintenance activities.

Another common application of delineators is in traffic calming measures. By strategically placing delineators on roads with high-speed limits, traffic flow can be slowed down, improving safety for pedestrians and other road users.

Delineators can also be used to mark pedestrian crossings, bicycle lanes, or bus stops, ensuring the smooth movement of different modes of transportation.

Reboundable Delineators

Reboundable delineators are designed to withstand impacts from vehicles. They are made from flexible materials that allow them to bounce back to their original position after being hit.

These delineators are commonly used in high-traffic areas where accidental collisions are more likely to occur. Reboundable delineators are durable, cost-effective, and provide excellent visibility.

Econo / Normal Delineators

Our Econo or Normal delineators are an economical option for traffic management. They are made from rigid materials and are suitable for areas with lower traffic volumes.

Our delineators come in different sticker configurations to cater to diverse requirements. For single-sided blade delineators, the reflective sticker is only applied to the front of the blade. This design ensures effective visibility from one direction.

For double-sided point-to-point direction delineators, the reflective sticker is applied on both the front and back of the delineator, facing the same direction.

This configuration ensures optimal visibility and clear guidance in one direction.
