Traffic cone, also known as a road cone, safety cone, or pylon. These are cone-shaped markers used to temporarily redirect or manage traffic on roads and footpaths.
Traffic cones are typically made of a brightly colored plastic, such as orange, and are often equipped with reflective stripes to ensure high visibility, especially at night.
They are used to separate lanes, mark pedestrian paths, indicate road construction areas, or highlight an accident.
The design is intended to be highly visible and easily movable.
Some cones have a heavy base to prevent them from being knocked over by wind or passing vehicles.
