Australian Bollards - Protecting critical infrastructure and saving lives

Energy Absorbing Bollards - Active Safety at Tram Stop 139
As part of the modernisation of Melbourne's tram network, Yarra Trams constructed a new terminus and level-access platform stop on the corner of Toorak Road and Glenferrie Road. It was the last remaining unprotected terminus on Melbourne's tram network in 2015. A safety risk assessment completed by Yarra Trams ranked the terminus in the top ten hot spots/stops for severity, with vehicle-to-passenger near misses recorded on an almost daily basis and did not allow for safe and easy boarding. Benefits of the upgrade included easier and safer access to trams and an increased protection from road traffic. The upgrade would have been incomplete without the installation of Energy Absorbing Bollards (AB-EAB). -
