The Road Runner 500 provides a low-profile alternative to larger temporary barrier systems where compact dimensions, quick deployment and straightforward handling are priorities. Its self-weighted construction removes the usual filling stage associated with water-filled barriers, helping site teams establish temporary routes and delineated areas efficiently.
- No water or sand filling required – The 12.8kg barrier can be positioned and used without filling the main unit with external ballast for standard applications.
- Interlocking barrier system – Moulded connectors allow multiple Road Runner 500 units to be joined into longer, continuous runs.
- Compact 500mm profile – The low-height design is suitable for temporary traffic-management layouts, construction-site zoning and route delineation where a full-height pedestrian barrier is not required.
- HDPE and recycled PVC construction – Manufactured using virgin HDPE and recycled PVC for a practical barrier designed for repeated site handling.
- Designed for easier movement – Handling points and forklift slots help teams move and reposition units between work areas.
At 1105mm wide and 370mm deep, each unit provides a compact footprint while still carrying its own weight at ground level. This makes the Road Runner 500 particularly useful where barriers need to be deployed, moved or reconfigured as a project progresses.
For exposed locations, additional ballast may be required depending on the wind-resistance class needed. The exact ballast requirements should be checked against the validated Road Runner 500 wind-test data before specifying the barrier for high-wind applications.
The Road Runner 500 is intended for temporary delineation, pedestrian guidance and work-zone layouts. It should not be described or specified as a vehicle-impact restraint or crash barrier unless a separate tested containment rating is available.
HERMEQ also stocks a wide range of Water Filled Barriers, Traffic Management Equipment, Road Barriers & Road Signs conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

Does the Road Runner 500 need water or sand?
No. The Road Runner 500 is self-weighted at 12.8kg, so its standard setup does not require the barrier to be filled with water or sand.
Additional ballast may be required where a specific higher wind-resistance class needs to be achieved.
What size is the Road Runner 500?
The Road Runner 500 measures 500mm high, 1105mm wide and 370mm deep. Its compact dimensions make it useful for temporary layouts where a low-profile barrier is preferred.
How do Road Runner 500 barriers connect together?
Road Runner 500 barriers use moulded interlocking connectors. Multiple units can be joined together to create a continuous temporary barrier run.
What is the Road Runner 500 made from?
The barrier is manufactured using virgin HDPE and recycled PVC. This combination creates a practical self-weighted unit suitable for repeated handling in temporary traffic-management and construction environments.
What is the Road Runner 500 used for?
The Road Runner 500 can be used for temporary roadworks layouts, construction-site zoning, pedestrian route guidance and work-area demarcation. Its compact design is particularly useful where barriers need to be repositioned regularly.
