Recently, the rise in vehicle-ramming attacks has underscored the critical need for robust security measures in public spaces. The tragic events highlighted in New Orleans and the alarming increase in vehicle-based terror incidents in Germany and Jacksonville, FL – bring this issue to the forefront. As event organizers and municipalities work to protect the public, innovative solutions like the Block Axess System by TrafFix Devices Inc. provide a practical and effective way to enhance public safety.

Understanding the Block Axess System

The Block Axess System is a modular, portable vehicle barrier designed to prevent unauthorized vehicular access to pedestrian zones, public gatherings, and critical infrastructure. Unlike traditional hostile vehicle mitigation systems and bollards, which can be cumbersome and are not moveable, Block Axess is engineered for both strength and ease of deployment, making it ideal for temporary and permanent applications.

Hostile vehicle mitigation is a system deployed to reduce the risk of vehicular threat to pedestrians. These security devices, like the Block Axess, represent a seismic shift in the focus of roadway protection. Where our philosophy has always been to safeguard driver and vehicle occupants, with a system like the Block Axess our duty of care shifts towards pedestrians, seeking to protect them from distracted or deliberately malicious drivers.

The system is implemented to ensure publicly accessible foot traffic, be it for large-scale events, critical infrastructure, or high-risk zones, our hostile vehicle mitigation HVM ensure your safety is never compromised.
