This Chapter 8 road barrier provides a reusable and straightforward way to mark temporary work zones, guide pedestrians and form barrier runs around construction or traffic-management activity. Its plastic construction avoids metal fittings within the barrier body, while rotating feet support more compact storage when the barriers are not in use.
- Blow-moulded HDPE construction: The barrier body is manufactured from high-density polyethylene for repeated handling in temporary site and roadwork environments.
- Standard or anti-trip feet: Standard black swivel feet provide the regular configuration, while the anti-trip option reduces the extent of the foot projecting into a pedestrian route on one side.
- Hook-and-eye connection: Each barrier links to the next to create longer runs around excavations, working areas, access routes and temporary closures.
- Rotating-foot design: The feet can be turned for storage, helping barriers stack more closely during transport or when held in a depot.
- Certified for road construction barriers: Complies with Chapter 8 and relevant UK road safety codes.
At 2,000mm wide, each barrier covers a practical length of a temporary layout without becoming a permanent or impact-rated system. The 1,000mm height also creates a clearly defined boundary for roadworks, utilities activity, public-facing construction work and managed pedestrian routes.
The standard-foot version weighs 10.3kg, while the anti-trip version weighs 8.9kg. Buyers should select the configuration according to the site layout, pedestrian movement and handling requirements rather than choosing solely on weight.
Browse the full Traffic Barriers range first if you need to compare this Chapter 8 road barrier with other temporary traffic-management options. For a more substantial plastic barrier, consider the WonderWall Heavy Duty Traffic Barrier; where a different Chapter 8 configuration is required, compare the Olympic Chapter 8 Safety Barrier. Buyers storing or moving barriers in volume should also review the Road Barrier Stillage, while Traffic Signs can support a wider temporary traffic-management layout.

What size is the Chapter 8 road barrier?
The barrier measures 2,000mm wide, 1,000mm high and 50mm deep. Its 2m width allows multiple barriers to be connected to form longer temporary runs.
What is the barrier made from?
The barrier is manufactured from high-density polyethylene using a blow-moulding process.
How do the barriers connect?
Each barrier uses a hook-and-eye connection system. This allows adjoining barriers to be linked together into a continuous temporary boundary or pedestrian route.
What is the difference between standard and anti-trip feet?
The standard version uses black swivel feet. The anti-trip option is designed to reduce the amount of the foot projecting into the pedestrian side of the barrier, making it useful where footway space and pedestrian movement need to be considered.
Can these barriers be stacked?
Yes. The feet rotate so the barriers can be positioned closer together for storage and transport.
What is this road barrier suitable for?
It is suitable for temporary roadworks, street works, construction areas and managed pedestrian routes. It is not designed for vehicle impact protection or crash containment.
