Lindsay said it recently installed its first unit of its MASH-tested TAU-XR Xpress repair crash cushion, designed for swift installation and rapid repair.

The installation of the TAU-XR was in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the intersection of Highway 91 and Great Basin.

Lindsay said that as a severe-duty, low-maintenance crash cushion, it delivers exceptional, long-term durability and low cost of ownership. TAU-XR ships fully assembled, allowing for an expedited installation onsite.

The TAU-XR offers a range of transition options up to 52 inches (1m), ensuring maximum versatility in design. Lindsay says that what sets the TAU-XR apart is its dual-rail configuration and attenuation that enables a straightforward, 30-minutes or less installation process and cost-effective repairs.

"The TAU-XR embodies our dedication to enhancing road safety while streamlining maintenance operations,” said Cole Hansen, vice president and general manager of infrastructure at Lindsay. "We're proud to offer a solution that has undergone rigorous testing for both asphalt and concrete applications, making the TAU-XR an ideal choice for contractors."
