When Seconds Matter: Rapid TMA Blocking for Emergencies
We at DHF Emergency Attenuator Services are dedicated to providing 24/7 rapid response for every unplanned roadway emergency here in North Texas. Our job is to be on call constantly so we can immediately deploy our TMA blocker units to high-risk incidents, including severe crashes, large debris fields, major hazardous spills, and disabled vehicles stranded in active travel lanes. This swift deployment establishes a protected buffer, safeguarding your police, fire, and cleanup crews from devastating secondary collisions and ensuring they can complete their work safely and efficiently.
Incident Scenarios We Shield:
When unexpected events escalate fast, we dispatch our units to establish a secure, protective buffer, drastically reducing struck-by risk and secondary collisions.
-
Crashes and Secondary Collision Prevention: Securing accident scenes to protect investigators, clean-up crews, and EMS personnel.
-
Disabled/Stranded Vehicles: Shielding vehicles that have broken down in critical travel lanes or on shoulders until they can be safely removed.
-
Debris or Spilled Loads: Protecting maintenance crews clearing major road hazards like construction material, product spills, or vehicle wreckage.
-
Hazmat Cleanup and Unplanned Closures: Providing a secure zone for environmental and specialized crews handling hazardous material incidents.

Fire Scenes Near Highways: Creating a safe perimeter for fireground operations located adjacent to high-speed traffic flows.
Our Deployment Promise:
Our deployment process is professional, compliant, and designed for maximum effectiveness:
-
Purpose-Built TMA Units: We only use dedicated, MASH/NCHRP-tested equipment, not borrowed fleet vehicles.
-
Shadow Vehicle Positioning: Strategically positioned with calculated buffer space to maximize energy absorption.
-
High-Visibility Lighting: Utilizing high-intensity light arrays and clear arrow boards for maximum motorist warning.
