What is a "Jersey barrier"?
A Jersey barrier is a type of concrete barrier used to separate lanes of traffic or protect areas from accidents. It is often found on highways, roads, or construction zones to help keep vehicles on their proper side of the road and reduce the risk of collisions. Jersey barriers are designed with a unique shape, typically with a slanted or curved side, which helps to deflect vehicles away from the barrier if they make contact. They are used to prevent vehicles from crossing into oncoming traffic or entering dangerous areas, providing safety for drivers and pedestrians.
Example
The highway was divided into two sections by a Jersey barrier to keep cars moving in different directions.
During road construction, workers placed a Jersey barrier to keep drivers away from the work zone.
The Jersey barrier helped prevent cars from crossing into oncoming traffic after the accident.
