1. An improved road barrier for channelizing traffic comprising:
- a. at least one hollow pyramidal structure having a frustum top;
b. a base formed on the bottom of said pyramidal structure for stabilizing said pyramidal structure on a flat surface;
c. a plurality of spaced apart bands formed on said pyramid structure for dividing said pyramidal structure into a plurality of tiers, with each said tier having a plurality of panel faces so as to add strength to said pyramidal structure, said panel faces sloping inward from bottom to top; and
d. means on said frustum top of said pyramidal structure for mounting a warning light thereto.

Abstract
An improved road barrier for channelizing traffic is provided and consists of a hollow pyramidal structure having a frustrum top. A base is formed on the bottom for stabilizing the pyramidal structure on a flat surface. A plurality of spaced apart bands are formed on the pyramidal structure for dividing it into a plurality of tiers with each tier having a plurality of panel faces so as to add strength to the pyramidal structure. At least one rib is formed on the frustrum top for mounting a warning light thereto.

9. An improved road barrier for use with barrier boards comprising:
-
a. pairs of first and second hollow pyramidal structures, each having a frustum top; b. at least one band formed on each of said first pyramidal structures dividing them into a plurality of tiers, each tier of each of said first pyramidal structures having a plurality of panel faces, each of said panel faces in at least one tier having a vertical slot defined therethrough for receiving one end of a barrier board; c. at least one band formed on each of said second pyramidal structures dividing them into a plurality of tiers, each tier having a plurality of panel faces, each of said panel faces in at least one tier of each of said second pyramidal structures having a vertical slot defined therethrough for receiving one end of a barrier board, said first pyramidal structures being sized to be placed atop said second pyramidal structures, such that when said first pyramidal structure is placed atop said second pyramidal structure, said vertical slots in said panel faces in said at least one tier of said first pyramidal structures align with said vertical slots in said panel faces in said at least one tier of said second pyramidal structures; and d. means to attach a warning light to the top of said first and second pyramidal structures. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)

- 12. An improved road barrier as recited in cliam 10, wherein said first pyramidal structures are divided by two spaced apart bands into three tiers, said panel faces of said first and third tiers having said vertical slots therethrough, and said second pyramidal structures are divided by three spaced apart bands into four tiers, said panel faces of said second and fourth tiers having vertical slots therethrough, such that when said first pyramidal structures are placed atop said second pyramidal structures, the vertical slots in said panel faces of said first tiers of said first pyramidal structures align with said vertical slots in said panel faces of said fourth tiers of said second pyramidal structures.

15. An improved road barrier for use with barrier boards comprising:
-
a. first and second hollow pyramidal structures, each having a frustum top; b. panel faces formed on said first and second hollow pyramidal structures, said panel faces sloping inward from bottom to top of said first and second hollow pyramidal structures; and c. vertical slots formed through a plurality of said panel faces, each vertical slot being capable of receiving one end of a barrier board, wherein said first pyramidal structure is sized to be placed atop said second pyramidal structure such that when said first pyramidal structure is placed atop said second pyramidal structure, at least some of said vertical slots in said panel faces in said first pyramidal structure align with said vertical slots in said panel faces of said second pyramidal structure. - View Dependent Claims (16)
