Pexco’s Traffic Control Products, has been awarded a large contract to supply its new traffic control devices to Texas’s Department of Transport. This project, which involves installing the FG 300 Curb System along 13 miles of the US 75 highway, is the largest of its kind so far in the United States. 

In a typical HOT lane installation, flexible posts are placed on 10 foot centers in between the lanes. Pexco’s FG 300 Curb System features an 8” wide, 2” high curb that supports vertical posts with reflective sheeting. The posts themselves are designed to be reboundable and bounce back into place when hit. The curb system creates a dramatic ‘picket fence’ effect that acts as a strong psychological deterrent to motorists changing lanes. Once installed, the system requires very little maintenance, since the polyurethane posts are designed to high performance standard.
