Engineered Solutions for Lane Management

B&B Roadway supplies both vertical and horizontal warning gate operators, available in single-rail or dual-rail arm styles with multiple lighting options and operator configurations to fit the unique needs of any managed lane project. Each gate is engineered with a breakaway shear pin design, allowing the arm to safely disengage on impact to protect both motorists and equipment. Built for flexibility, safety, and reliability, our warning gates are a trusted American-made solution for today’s managed roadways.

B&B Roadway’s Resistance Barriers are designed to safely stop unauthorized vehicles by absorbing the kinetic energy of the impact, protecting both motorists and critical infrastructure. Available in vertical or horizontal configurations, they address the specific needs of managed lanes to prevent unauthorized access. With various styles and integrated lighting options, our barriers provide reliable protection while seamlessly integrating into managed lane access control systems.
