Traffic Vehicle Racking Cage | Design 16 | Bollard Storage

Traffic Vehicle Racking Cage (Design 16) is an Australian-made, vehicle-mounted storage and deployment system for traffic control equipment, with a dedicated section for T-top bollards. It mounts to the tray of a traffic control ute or truck and suits crews doing bollard work who also carry multi-message frames, corflute sign panels, frame legs, cones and stop/slow bats. It is used by traffic management companies, civil contractors, utility crews and councils running equipped traffic control vehicles.

Design 16 uses the same front layout as Design 7, our most popular cage, and adds a mesh-fronted section at one end that holds 30 T-top bollard stems, along with an enclosed storage box. If you don't need bollard storage, Design 7 is the shorter option.

The cage is installed on a ute or truck tray as part of a traffic control vehicle fit-out. We fit traffic racking cages at our Bayswater North depot in Victoria. Contact us for a fitment quote. The cage can also be shipped Australia-wide if you are arranging installation yourself. Sign panels and multi-message frames slide into bent zinc-plated steel sheet sections, an extended leg section holds the frame legs, and a chain secures cones during transport.

During site setup and pack-down, crews work directly from the cage. Frames, panels, legs and bollard stems sit in dedicated sections, so equipment comes off the vehicle and goes back on in a repeatable order rather than being loaded loose on the tray. A dedicated stop/slow bat compartment keeps hand signalling equipment separate from the sign stock.

The cage is fully welded from 25 x 25mm SHS DuraGal steel, with cold galvanising applied to the welds. The sign and frame housings are formed from bent zinc-plated steel sheet. UAGS has been building racking cages for more than 15 years, and this layout has been refined through that time in service on working traffic control vehicles.

Design 16 holds:

• 25 multi-message frames, such as the Multi Message Traffic Sign Frame 1
• Two 200mm sections for 600 x 600mm corflute sign panels and one 200mm section for 1200 x 300mm panels
• 60 Y-frame legs, such as the Heavy Duty Traffic Sign Y-Leg (Yellow)
• 30 T-top bollard stems, such as the Contractor Series T-Top Bollard Stem (1140mm)
• Four Temporary Hazard Markers (T5-4)
• Two 450mm Stop Slow Bats
• More than 10 Black/Yellow Extendable Cone Bars
• One B-Class LED Arrow Board
• An enclosed sheet metal storage box (350 x 275mm, 400mm high) for smaller items such as flags, barrier tape and clips

Bollard bases and traffic cones, such as the Contractor Series 6kg Bollard Base and the 700mm Heavy Duty Traffic Cone, sit in the available tray space beside the cage.

The arrow board is supplied with its beacon brackets attached and fixes to the cage on two 1600mm mounting bars. Frames, signs, legs, bollards and other equipment shown are sold separately.

The cage measures 2025mm long, 1650mm wide and 1215mm high. The 1650mm overall width includes the arrow board mounting bars and the stop/slow bat holder. The cage footprint is 1550mm wide.

Carrying fewer bollards and want the bases on the cage? Design 21 holds up to 10 T-top bollard stems on a single-row hanger and 9 bollard bases in three compartments.

Design 16 is one of more than 50 UAGS cage designs used across traffic control, civil construction, utility and council fleets. UAGS also fabricates custom cages matched to a specific vehicle, equipment list or crew workflow, and supplies complete traffic control vehicle fit-outs.
