Frequently Asked Questions

What is a water-filled barrier?

  • A water-filled barrier is defined by the Department of Roads & Maritime Services as a barrier installed during short term and ongoing road works or emergency situations.
  • It is often filled with water or sand to provide enough strength to withstand the impact of a traffic incident.

Are water-filled barriers a safe option?

  • Water-filled barriers are used to delineate pedestrians from vehicles or hazards.
  • This can separate pedestrians and workers near busy roads and intersections.

What are water-filled barriers used for?

  • Water-filled barriers are used in a variety of different applications. These include crowd control, roadblocks, traffic diversions, work zones, warehousing and distribution centres.
  • These barriers are best suited for separating pedestrians and vehicles in low speed areas.

Should I buy or hire water-filled barriers?

Water-filled barriers are made from strength-tested and durable plastics. Because of this, they are a great long-term or short-term option.

If your project is expected to last longer than a week, we recommend investing in our extensive value range of water-filled barriers.

What do I need to consider when purchasing a water filled barrier?

When purchasing a water-filled barrier, it is important to consider what speed zones the barrier will be in.

  • If it is being used in a reduced speed area (below 20km/h), we recommend looking through our range of stackable water-filled barriers.
  • In areas that are high traffic but low speed, you can’t go past our interlocking water-filled barriers for safety and security.
  • For school zones or car parks with a speed limit of 40km/h, our heavy duty water-filled barriers are a cost effective and safety compliant option.
  • In high speed areas, we recommend using a crash or MASH tested barrier to ensure the safety of pedestrians and motorists.

When is it best to use water-filled barriers?

We recommend using water-filled barriers on work sites, near major highways and busy intersections, and where pedestrians and workers may need protection from vehicles and other road hazards.
