Hi,
this time I would like to present a selection of traffic barriers which you can use for your highways, but also avenues and other road types.
It consists of three separate plugins so that you can select the parts you want to use and leave out those which you won't need.

Here are the three parts:

traffic_barrier_median_Linetool_mdk_813.zip
(18.18 KiB) Downloaded 6807 times
This is probably the basic and most important part, which works fine on its own, i.e. even without the other two parts.
It adds median barriers which are intended to be placed between the lanes of a highway.
It consists of two linetools, one with lamps, one without lamps. Personally I think the spacing between the lamps in the linetool is too narrow, but I included it anyway, because some people might feel different about it. But I also added a rotation aware puzzle piece with a lamp that allows you to create variable spacings between the lamps.
To use this you would want to draw a barrier with the linetool without lamps first and then put the single lamp piece over it whereever you want a lamp to be. I suggest to place on every second tile (see example picture above). As long as you don't draw over it with the linetool again, the barriers will retain a correct transition to the puzzle pieces.

traffic_barrier_single_mdk_813.zip
(26.61 KiB) Downloaded 4464 times
This is an optional part. It adds puzzle pieces of single barriers which are intended to be placed at the sides of the lanes. I wanted to make these as linetools, too, but unfortunately map rotation wouldn't work due to the asymmetry of the tiles. So I had to stick to rotation aware puzzle pieces.
Note that outer corners are not included because they are unnecessary. Just leave the outer corner tiles empty.

traffic_barrier_single_Soundwall_mdk_813.zip
(43.88 KiB) Downloaded 4401 times
This is another optional part. It acts as an addon to my New Soundwalls plugin: http://www.theotown.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=4279
Essentially, these pieces are the same as the above single barriers just with Soundwalls added to them. You can use these pieces in conjunction with my New Soundwalls in places where you want to have a barrier at the side of the roads. Again, a linetool is not possible here unfortunately.
These pieces have the same noise reductive function as the New Soundwalls.
Please note, that here you would have to place the provided outer corner (OC) tiles.


Below is an overview of the included tools and pieces:

KoalaGuy , I don't want to bother you again but do you think you could make two "custom linetools" to the barriers that can't have a standard linetool?
Do you mean the outside-pieces?
A normal linetool at least doesn't work. I've tried that. Maybe one of former members areatools could work.
However, it may be a better idea to make custom roads/highways, that have these barriers already integrated instead of the ingame barriers.
If anybody wants to do that, give me a PM!
