Accident Barriers in Bridges
Abstract: Barriers are placed in many places in the highways in order to prevent the accidents. Traffic barriers are normally installed on bridges to prevent errant vehicles from running off the edge of the bridge nowadays many inventions like placing cross links, concrete links are going on to reduce the accidents, but apart from that many accidents occurs. On the way of improvement this paper gives an idea which can be implemented in the bridges so as to reduce the accidents which occur in the bridge at least up to 60 %. This paper focuses on an idea of using two barriers in which one is made up of concrete and another is made up of steel which has a gear arrangement and a rack arrangement so as to prevent the accidents.
Keywords: Bridges, double wall barrier, gears, rack
