Development and MASH TL-4 evaluation of TxDOT large-scupper median barrier for flood-prone areas /

Concrete median barriers are designed to mitigate serious cross-median crashes by preventing penetration of errant vehicles into oncoming traffic. When implemented in flood-prone areas, however, solid concrete median barriers can act as a dam to floodwaters, as recently seen in Texas during Hurrican...
