you can use them for all kind of temporary regulation, in Rome they
use them to install roundabouts before they build them with concrete
and kerbs, they are also used to physically restrict parking in more
ordered manners, but mostly their use is temporary. I also saw them
used as kind of guard rails along the road (in the city, temporary but
not too short, more than a year).

maybe you can spot a more technic term? I'm sure they have a proper name ;-)
