I tagged it as bollard before and yes, it comes near. But I think at least from the meaning of traffic_calming=chicane mentioned in the other answers it might even better. </blockquote><div><br>I would say that a chicane is designed to slow down traffic (much like a speed bump) and make a road less suitable for through traffic, without blocking access for any vehicles that are able to use the road on either side. This barrier is constructed to in such a way that cars which are able to use the road, are unable to pass the barrier.<br>
