What is the Traffic Lane Separator?

The Traffic Lane Separator is a modular lane-separation system designed for vehicle and pedestrian guidance in low-speed or temporary traffic zones. It uses a series of interlocking modules—typically a heavy-duty base “centre module” combined with a high-visibility panel and complemented by end or taper modules. These elements help form a continuous visual and physical boundary between lanes of traffic, pedestrian paths or mixed-use zones.

Why Use It? Key Benefits

• ✅ Clear traffic guidance: define vehicle lanes, merge paths and pedestrian separations to reduce confusion.
• ✅ High visibility: bold black-and-yellow contrast with reflective panels improves recognisability in low-light or adverse weather.
• ✅ Modular flexibility: easy to extend, shorten or re-route the system as site conditions change.
• ✅ Quick installation: pre-drilled bases are anchored into asphalt or concrete for fast deployment.
• ✅ Cost-effective maintenance: damaged sections can be replaced individually, avoiding full-length system replacement.

System Components

1) Core Product – Centre Module + Panel

The Centre Module with Panel is the backbone of the system. A robust rubber base anchors to the surface and supports a dual-sided high-visibility panel. Multiple modules are linked end-to-end to form continuous separation lines.

2) High-Visibility Hazard Panel (optional upgrade)

For enhanced visual performance in demanding conditions (night-time, backlit areas, high-traffic merges), the Hazard Panel module adds dual-sided reflective graphics to boost recognition.

3) End Modules (Male / Female) – Tapered Termination

To finish the run neatly at start, end or break-points, use the End Modules (Male/Female). These offer a smooth taper and reduce risk of tyre strikes or pedestrian trips.

Typical Applications

• ✔️ Car parks: entry/exit funnels, one-way aisles, pedestrian crossing protection
• ✔️ Temporary construction zones & maintenance detours: rapid lane reconfiguration
• ✔️ Schools, hospitals, campuses: slow-speed traffic calming with clear separation
• ✔️ Event venues & logistics yards: queue management, loading zone segregation
• ✔️ Bike paths & micromobility lanes: creating protected lanes adjacent to vehicular traffic

Installation Steps (Quick Guide)

1. Lay out the path: mark start/end, turns, and merge points.
2. Set module positions: align centre modules with appropriate spacing and orientation.
3. Mark anchor holes: use the pre-drilled base as a template.
4. Drill & anchor: drill into asphalt/concrete and fix modules using suitable bolts or anchors.
5. Connect & finish: install centre modules end-to-end, insert hazard panels as needed, and attach end modules where required.
6. Final check: inspect alignment, tighten bolts, verify panel orientation and add signage if necessary.

Pro tip: Use a rubber mallet to fully seat the panel into the module without marking the face.

Planning & Selection Tips

• Length & layout: measure required lane length, number of turns/merges, and determine module count.
• Visibility needs: for low light/backlit or wet conditions, specify hazard panels or reflective elements.
• Mixed traffic: if pedestrians or cyclists are present, ensure adequate separation and reduce abrupt curves.
• Temporary vs. permanent: temporary setups may prioritise speed of deployment; permanent installations may include heavier anchors and signage.
• Maintenance plan: label module segments and keep replacement stock to minimise downtime.
