Additional Comments:  

The Archer 1200 Mobile Barrier is Engineered for high security environments and is a "Drop and Stop" anti-ram portable vehicle barrier that protects people and critical infrastructure by stopping unauthorized vehicle access. Ideal for entry points, roadways, construction sites, and public events, it is easy to deploy in under 10 minutes. The barricades also have an optional rapid gate capable of allowing emergency access adjustable to 10’, 12’, or 14’ opening.  The rental and use of the Meridian Barricades will assist in providing a safe and secure environment for the upcoming America’s 250th Celebration and parade on July 4th and will provide an excellent opportunity for city departments and leaders to observe the equipment in action.
