Abstract

A cover element 1 for highway barriers or guardrails comprising: a first portion 10 that can be located on the front part 20 of a guardrail 2 facing the roadway 3 and having a height sufficient to cover the front part 20 of the guardrail 2 at least from the ground 4 to the maximum height of the guardrail 2 itself; a second portion 11, connected to the first portion 10, that can be located above the upper part 21 of the guardrail 2 and having a width sufficient to cover at least the entire width of the upper part 21 of the guardrail 2; means 12 for fixing the cover element 1 in position relative to the guardrail 2. The cover element 1 has a preset length, corresponding to at least one section of the guardrail 2, is manufactured in a partially shock-absorbent material (preferably rubber) and has, on the part opposite to the guardrail 2 and extending at least for the entire first portion 10 and the entire second portion 11, a continuous outer surface without any sharp edges. One or more cover elements 1 joined together to form a cover module 8 for highway barriers or guardrails. A plurality of cover modules 8 can form a cover for highway barriers or guardrails.
