Various guide posts

Aufsatzleitpfosten belong to street furniture and used wherever normal delineators or Leitpflöcke due guardrails or concrete barriers can not be incorporated (so-called protective devices). The guide posts are about half as long as the normal version and are mounted on the protective device with the help of different brackets. Alternatively, there is also the option of attaching simple retroreflectors to the protective device.

Dispensing with add-on delineators or reflectors has a negative impact on traffic safety, especially at night or in poor visibility, since crash barriers or concrete protective walls alone do not guarantee optimal visual guidance.
