Officials say median barriers are working Officials say median barriers are working Quote: ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. — Median barriers erected along parts of a Kentucky interstate are credited by transportation officials with preventing numerous vehicles from possibly crossing into oncoming lanes. In Hardin County, two eight-mile sections of the cable barrier prevented possible lane crossovers on about six occasions since installation was completed in late April, Becky Judson, spokeswoman for Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 4, told The News-Enterprize of Elizabethtown. Cable barrier also was installed along 12 miles of I-65 in Hart and Barren counties, and six miles of I-65 in Bullitt County, the newspaper reported. The 18 combined miles of cable barrier in Bullitt, Hart and Barren counties had been impacted 18 times as of Aug. 10, according to KTC records. more here>> Officials say median barriers are working __________________ Click here to learn how to sponsor us

they installed those a few years back on I-69 here in Indiana, mainly south towards Indy. i'd say they work well given the damage i saw to a few sections plus the skid marks on the roadway. looked like it'd stopped some big vehicles given the marks. the only negatives i've heard are from motorcycle riders. the cables do present a bit of a danger to them. though i think in general a sliding rider/motorcycle is going to go straight under rather than hit a cable.
