A **Towable Attenuator** is a mobile crash protection device designed to be towed behind a vehicle, typically used in temporary roadwork zones, highway construction, and maintenance operations. Its primary function is to reduce the impact force during rear-end collisions, protecting both workers and motorists by absorbing and dissipating kinetic energy. The attenuator features a crash cushion system made from energy-absorbing materials and is engineered to crumple in a controlled manner, thereby reducing the severity of the crash.
Towable attenuators are versatile and easy to deploy, making them ideal for short-term or rapidly changing work zones. They are designed to be lightweight for easier transport while remaining robust enough to meet safety standards for impact protection. These devices typically include bright, reflective markings and optional warning lights to enhance visibility and alert drivers to hazards ahead. Towable attenuators offer a cost-effective and efficient solution for protecting work zones in both urban and highway environments.
