K-Rail Placement

What This Service Involves

K-rail is the workhorse barrier for lane separation, detour edges, and construction buffers on public roads. We haul, position, and connect K-rail sections to create continuous protective barriers along the alignment. Reflective delineation and end treatments are added where traffic exposure requires them. Sections are pinned or free-standing based on the project's protection needs and site conditions. At demobilization we recover every section and restore the corridor to open condition.

Benefits

Continuous barrier protection along alignments; reflective delineation and end treatments; pinned or free-standing per project needs; efficient hauling and positioning; complete recovery at demobilization

Our Process

1) Plan the K-rail run and delineation needs; 2) Establish traffic control and deliver sections; 3) Position and connect the barrier line; 4) Recover sections and clear the corridor at closeout

What Affects the Cost

Linear footage of barrier; hauling and placement equipment; reflective delineation and end units; pinning versus free-standing setup; project duration and traffic control

Best Time of Year

K-rail placement tracks the paving and construction season and is available for winter emergency detours.
