Deltabloc 6m Barriers Installed at Cronulla Beach

The Kingsway Safety Improvements

Sutherland Shire Council, November 2017

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Sutherland Shire Council has taken steps to boost public safety by installing DeltaBloc concrete crash barriers near Sydney’s iconic Cronulla beach.

These barriers have been strategically placed at the base of the hill on The Kingsway at the entrance to Perryman Square. The 6 metre long DB80 Deltabloc concrete crash barriers will ensure pedestrians and beach-goers remain protected if a crisis was to occur. The potential for an out of control vehicle to impact the large volume of beach visitors prompted the Council to take evasive safety action.

The concrete barriers received a colourful coat of paint to minimise the visual impact on the surrounding area.

Far from being a utilitarian and unsightly concrete block, the Deltabloc barriers have been transformed into an attractive feature for tourists to snap a photo.

ABOUT THE DELTABLOC DB80 BARRIERS

The 6m Deltabloc DB80 is a precast concrete barrier which is recognised for its versatility. With the option to be bolted or pinned into place depending on the application, it is easy to install, transport and dismantle.

Approved for road use up to 100km/hr in NSW & VIC and 80km/hr in QLD, the Deltabloc jersey barrier can reduce the risk of a head-on collision as a result of an out of control vehicle crossing over the median strip into oncoming traffic. Protect workers and pedestrians on and around road works and construction zones, or use the Deltabloc as a safety barrier for crowd control.

The Deltabloc jersey barriers are characterised by a highly efficient coupling method without any screws and patented damping devices at the element joints. As a fully approved road barrier, the Deltabloc DB80 is surprisingly lightweight. At only 520kg per metre, Deltabloc barriers are easy and efficient to transport and install without compromising of quality or safety.
