Keep your crews and the public safe with durable, fast-deploy Flex-Safe® Folding Barricades. Designed for public works operations, they help manage traffic, secure work zones, and guide pedestrians with ease and efficiency.

Challenges Public Works Departments Face 

Public works teams manage busy streets, sidewalks, parks, and construction sites every day. Hazards change constantly, traffic flows unpredictably, and pedestrians often walk too close to work zones. Traditional cones, tape, and metal gates are heavy, difficult to store, and slow to deploy. Departments need flexible, durable, and highly visible barricades to protect crews, equipment, and the public.
