The Next Generation Difference

Every year, hundreds of roadway departures result in fatalities due to vehicles “gating” through the guardrail end terminal and striking a hazard. Current guardrail end terminal technology only consistently stops end-on vehicle strikes at shallow angles (+/- 3 degrees). The NGT safely stops nearly all vehicles that strike the end terminal at 15 degrees or less.

  • • 6’3” Length of Need (Post 2)

    • Non-gating up to 15°

    • Crash tested up to 77.5 mph

    • No Spearing

    • Install with standard guardrail equipment

    • Fewer unique parts = easy inventory management

    • Quick install reduces crew exposure in work zone

    • Shorter required length = less exposure & nuisance hits

vs.

  • • 12’ - 18’ Length of Need (Post 3 or greater)

    • Gates at 3° or more

    • Crash tested only up to 62.5 mph

    • Risk of guardrail spearing into vehicle

    • Custom field equipment needed

    • Complex inventory management

    • Lengthy installs exposes crew to traffic

    • Longer required length = more exposure and nuisance hits
