Hi @danvywinby.

All right, I drive for the last 20 years. I have driven through Serbia, Hungary, Croatia, Bosnia, Slovakia, Poland , Belarus, Slovenia, and Austria.
Not much like some other people, but not bad either ;)

Anyway, I have driven both on the regular roads and express/motor-ways. 8/10 the barriers used in the last 5+ years are this:

The only difference is if they have lights on it or not. On regular roads is so-so. On express/motor-ways mostly have lights.

Hard concrete barriers are used 1/10:

For the really quick jobs (1/10), cones are used i.e. always used for the horizontal signaling repaint.

Copy/paste "radovi na putu" for the former Yugoslavia.
This is from my country:

Here are my personal photos from October 2018. They are so so quality (plus resized for upload) because I was alone in the car so I just quickly pictured…
Anyway, this is from Poland:

Also from Poland, unrelated to this, but related to game (because I see AI in the game driving like this :o)…

In Sweden we have similar system as above, but concrete barriers (heavy barriers) are painted in yellow/red and some barriers look like this:

Sometimes those concrete barriers have yellow/red reflexes attached instead of paint

As Swedish warning traffic signs have yellow instead of white base color, the same goes for all warning systems in traffic

@NiHao and @abasstreppas Thank you very much for those pictures and links and info. They have really helped. Big thank you.

With reagrds to those plastic barriers that are shown in your pictures from Belarus i am very glad that you have shown them because they are used in the UK where i'm from and i was really not sure to try to include them or not because i was not sure if they were used in other European countries so i'm very glad to see that they are used. And i have found a model very similar to them in the game that i can use:

I think it depend the nature of the roadwork being worked on.

@danbywinby

All right, I found more personal photos.

This is again from October 2018 from Hungary.
You can read CONTRAFLOW TRAFFIC under Hungarian and can see small barriers in the mid of the road.

This is border crossing from Hungary into Slovakia.

All the following photos were made on the 15th of July, 2015, Niš – Belgrade motorway. I will never forgot that road trip not only because
there were road works all over the motorway in the middle of tourist season, but my car‘s windshield got slightly damaged because of it :evil:!

The following two photos were made at Bubanj Potok. There were the most famous toll booths not only in Serbia, maybe former Yugoslavia.
They are gone since April 2017, and in the second photo you can see preparation for new work.

The last group of photos is from the "famous" Sector B of Belgrade bypass.
You can see they used those plastic (red-white) barriers.

Being from the UK myself I can confirm. Roadworks in the UK you can basically guarantee they will use cones they might use other barriers as well but there will always be at least one cone :lol:

I am wondering about the possibility of combining the different barrier types for example have the vertical barriers for a bit and then switch to concrete where you have the actual roadworkers working and then switch back to the vertical barriers at the end :?: not sure if this would be possible but could certainly try :?:

@NiHao again a massive thank you for the photos, they really are a great help. I see that a blue/white arrow sign is used in some of them I'm sure I remember seeing something similar in the default SCS roadwork events so I should be able to add that in as well.

So i have finally decided what i am going to do for the different barrier types for the narrow roadwork events. I am going to use only the vertical roadwork barriers (not sure what their proper name is) and the cones. I feel that realistically these kinds of roadwork would be mostly short term and so they wouldn't use the concrete or big plastic barriers (i will use these when i come to making my own versions of the other roadworks events).

So i have created four different versions of the narrow roadworks events:

1. Using the vertical roadworks barriers:

2. Using the cones:

3. Using the vertical roadworks barriers but spawning with either nothing in the middle or only ground textures (dirt, road damage etc.)

4. Using the cones but spawning with either nothing in the middle or only ground textures (dirt, road damage etc.)

That looks very good. Much better than concrete barriers on those narrow roadworks ;)
