Abstract

A delineator device having high visibility and utility for attachment to a paving surface such as a median curb or other dividing area between two lanes of traffic. The device includes an integral base member and vertical support member having a top and a bottom end and intermediate section including an elongated concave-convex structure. The bottom end of the vertical support is coupled to an upper face of the base to provide support for an attached horizontal member at the top end of vertical support member. This horizontal member includes top and bottom edges and an intermediate section which is also of concave-convex structure. A receiving base is provided for insertion of a projection tab section which extends downward from the base member. Locking flanges are attached to the tab to enable the device to be secured in its inserted position.
