The Evolution of Traffic Control Companies

Traffic control is essential for keeping drivers and pedestrians safe in work zones, during lane closures, and at special events. With growing cities and a global push for sustainability, traffic control companies are changing how they work. They’re using better technology and eco-friendly materials to meet today’s demands.

Barricade Traffic Services is leading the way. This traffic control company offers smart, modern solutions that make work easier and safer. From durable barricades and traffic barrels to strong jersey wall barriers, their products help with all types of traffic control plans. They also focus on sustainability and health and safety, making them a trusted partner for many projects.

Smarter and Greener Traffic Control

Old-style traffic setups with wood barricades and cones are becoming a thing of the past. Cities now expect safer, cleaner, and more efficient solutions. Traffic control services must do more than provide basic tools—they need smart systems that save money and protect the environment.

That’s why Barricade Traffic Services builds products that are reusable, lightweight, and easy to use. They work with cities, contractors, and event planners who want reliable, eco-friendly tools that follow the Ontario Traffic Manual and support site-specific needs.

Modern Barricades

Barricades are at the heart of every traffic control setup. Barricade Traffic Services has several models designed for different jobs:

• 8' Plastic Saw Horse Barricade (TC-53A): This lightweight, foldable barricade is great for blocking off areas during road work or events. It's made from durable plastic and is easy to set up and move.
• Metal Crowd Control Barricade: These sturdy metal barriers are perfect for guiding people during concerts, festivals, or parades. They help keep crowds organized and safe.
• V-Type Crowd Control Barricade: This barricade has a unique V-shape design, making it stable and easy to see. It's ideal for managing pedestrian traffic and creating safe walkways.

These options help traffic control technicians and traffic control persons keep people safe in all types of temporary conditions.

Jersey Wall Barriers

For areas with fast traffic or long-term construction, Jersey Wall Barriers are a must. They separate active roads from work zones, protecting workers and drivers. These barriers can be filled with water or sand to stay in place, but they’re easier to set up than concrete ones.

Made from strong plastic, they’re more eco-friendly and safer to handle. Their bright color and reflective stripes also make them highly visible—especially at night or in poor weather.

Traffic Barrels

Traffic barrels (also called construction barrels or traffic drums) keep drivers and workers safe. They are large in size, bright orange, and have shiny reflective stripes so people can see them easily—day or night.

Barricade Traffic Services offers strong, easy-to-move traffic barrels such as the TC54 barrel. These traffic barrels meet all requirements from the Ontario Traffic Manual. They are great for lane closures, work zones, and even special events like festivals or races.

The wide base helps the barrel stay standing, even in wind or bad weather. They can also be stacked, which makes moving and storing them simple. Crews and traffic control technicians can set them up fast, saving time and helping with traffic safety and protecting workers.

Traffic Control for All Types of Projects

Barricade Traffic Services supports a wide range of clients with site-specific solutions. They don’t just sell products—they help plan safe and effective traffic control plans.

• Construction projects need strong tools like barricades and jersey wall barriers to protect crews and direct traffic.

• Special events need flexible setups. Metal crowd control barricades help guide people and keep areas secure.

• Municipal jobs like utility repairs or roadwork benefit from portable barricades that are easy to move between sites.

Barricade also supports sign manufacturing, helping ensure that traffic safety signs meet the needs of every project.
