Abstract:

Commonly known as Longitudinal Channelizing Devices (LCD), these units are used to delineate or channelize vehicles and pedestrians. LCDs help address work zone safety by preventing pedestrians and vehicles from entering work areas. Use of LCDs is beneficial at major decision points such as lane closures, exit ramps, driveways, and crossovers. These devices may be used instead of a tapered line of cones, drums, or barricades and also to define a travel path. Typical applications of LCDs include defining travel paths for pedestrians and conforming to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
