to impact and atmospheric agents. They arehoused inside compartments set into roadsurfaces and dissuade traffic and/or parking.FAAC City offers help and an intelligent solutionas an alternative to fixed stations, railings,barriers, chains and the like, by regulating entryof cars in given zones and preventing abusiveparking. The bollard therefore has a multiplicity of uses:it delimits pedestrian islands during the mostcrowded hour bands or permanently, it allowsentry to certain zones to authorized vehiclesonly (tradespeople, residents, hotel or garageguests, taxis and chauffeured driven cars,holders of reserved parking permits), itdelimits car parks, squares or pavements andcan also be used as a safety protective device.

■ City mobility and respect for urban decorFAAC City's strong point is that it bestexploits available space, thanks to its mobile,concealed structure.The bollard not only guarantees smoothpedestrian flow, but also manages vehicletraffic and restricted parking, with thefollowing advantages:- Does not disfigure the characteristics of the

environment because it is a mobile,concealed element with minimumenvironmental impact.

- Ensures greater protection of pedestrianareas in old town centres.

- Allows access to authorized vehicles only.- Reduces and optimises the use of human

resources engaged in access controlactivities.

- Customisable colour selection for blendingin with the urban context.

- Operation can be highlighted by buzzer orindicator light, according to position.

- Available with a large range of accessories.- It is a deterrent

■ We have solved the problem of accesses to old towncentres or to restrictedtraffic zonesIn cities, especially in old town centres,traffic is becoming more and more difficult tomanage. FAAC launches a new range ofdevices specifically studied to offer solutionsfor this type of problem.

this type of bollard should be used when accesses are restricted, orbe combined with the Automatic version of FAAC City. It solves transit and/or parking problems without high costs andwithout the need for electrical energy. In fact, thanks to the single-acting gas actuator, automatic-manual lifting with the aid of a key ispossible
