J-Tech LaneBlade Truck Attachment Designed to Protect Highway Workers
The S.C. Department of Transportation has become the latest state transportation agency to add a new device to its vehicles to help keep its highway workers safer while clearing debris from roadways.
The LaneBlade attaches to the front of a truck for clearing debris quickly and safely from roadways, according to the device’s manufacturer, J-Tech. The device enables safety patrols, like SCDOT’s State Highway Emergency Program workers, to push debris out of the highway without getting out of their vehicles.
“Workers will no longer need to run or walk into live lanes to pick up and remove debris,” the company says.
J-Tech announced the release of the LaneBlade in 2021 and has tested it with AutoBase Corp., a traffic incident management company headquartered in Amityville, New York. It says the LaneBlade has been used by 16 state and province agencies in North America.
