The HERMEQ Olympic Chapter 8 Safety Barrier is a high-visibility, rotating-panel plastic road barrier system designed for live excavation zones, pedestrian footpaths and utility works. Its patented 90° locking hinge allows users to form protected enclosures, straight runs or door-access points with zero tools required.

Made from impact-resistant plastic, this barrier folds compactly for storage and transport. It includes mounting points for courtesy boards and is suitable for complex traffic management barrier configurations thanks to its sliding link clips and rotational feet.

  • Rapid site deployment – Each barrier folds flat and links via integrated clips, reducing setup time and transport cost.
  • Urban & road barrier use – Compliant with Chapter 8 and BSEN standards for safe road construction setups.
  • Modular by design – Create safe work zones, footpath redirection or roadside cordons.
  • 360° swivel feet – Adaptable to uneven ground and confined urban spaces.
  • Optional signage integration – Brackets included for mounting courtesy or warning signs.

The Olympic barrier is compatible with HERMEQ’s full range of road barriers, traffic signage, and vehicle access systems. Suitable for use in urban footpath works, excavation perimeter marking and public event management.
