PTR's Truck-Mounted Attenuator (TMA) Truck rentals, also known as Crash Trucks, Shadow Trucks or Attenuator Trucks, help support crews working near active traffic during highway construction, utility, road maintenance, lane closure and emergency response projects. Equipped with a rear-mounted impact attenuator, these DOT-compliant work trucks act as a mobile crash cushion to help protect active work zones from errant vehicles. Available nationwide, PTR Crash Trucks are built to meet roadway safety requirements across the United States.

Crash Trucks are commonly utilized when crews are working near active traffic and additional work zone protection may be needed. As a part of a broader traffic control strategy, TMA Truck rentals help create a protective buffer between passing motorists and crews working within the work zone. Factors as traffic speed, traffic volume, lane closures, limited visibility and roadway conditions can all influence when a TMA truck is incorporated into a project safety plan.
Common applications for Crash Truck rentals include:
Highway and road construction projects
Lane closures and shoulder work
Road maintenance and pavement repairs
Bridge cosntruction
Overhead and underground utility work
Telecommunications and fiber installations
Emergency response
Sign installation and roadway inspections
Traffic control and workzone operations.
