What happened: A new trailer-mounted attenuator (TMA) has hit the transportation construction safety market. Valtir’s VORTEQ M, with its nearly 25-foot-long frame, can help absorb rear-end impacts at speeds up to 62 miles per hour.
Why it matters: Crashes in roadway work zones remain at unacceptably high levels. According to the National Work Zone Safety Information Clearinghouse, the U.S. saw an estimated 96,000 work zone crashes in 2022 alone. The VORTEQ M is quickly becoming the choice of contractors and state agencies looking to protect workers from oncoming traffic.
