Crash Cushions and End Terminals
In partnership with SMA Road Safety
What happens when a vehicle comes off the road? In most locations, if a vehicle leaves the carriageway, there is a risk of impact that puts both the vehicle and its occupants at risk of harm. Crash Cushions are designed to absorb the energy of the vehicle, reducing the risk to the driver and passengers, and bringing the vehicle to a stop.
​
The SMA range of crash cushions and end terminals available from Highway Care are designed to save lives and reduce the threat of damage to assets such as buildings and infrastructure.
