Performance of the Heavy Vehicle Median Barrier (HVMB) is discussed and criteria for identifying situations where the barrier should be used are presented. The Heavy Vehicle Median Barrier (HVMB) is a modified (42-in-high) New Jersey Safety Shape Median Barrier and is capable of redirecting heavy vehicles such as buses and van-type tractor-trailers with low centers of gravity. It was originally developed to deter errant trucks from crossing the median and colliding with oncoming vehicles.
