Fractured and weathered rock faces along I-80 through the Delaware Water Gap, I-78 through the Watchung Mountains, Route 23 along the Palisades, and Route 15 through the Highlands shed material that endangers traffic, damages infrastructure, and triggers emergency closures. Palisades diabase sill, New Jersey Highlands gneiss, and Delaware Water Gap quartzite create conditions where individual blocks and slabs detach unpredictably — demanding a control system that prevents rockfall before it reaches the roadway.
Access Limited installs engineered wire mesh systems across New Jersey — each designed for the specific rock mass conditions, block sizes, and slope geometry of the installation site.
Standard galvanized and high-tensile wire mesh panels are anchored to the slope face with pattern-bolted connections. The mesh confines loose blocks in place, preventing detachment and guiding any released material to a controlled collection zone at the slope toe.
Pinned mesh is secured directly to the rock face using a systematic grid of rock bolts or anchors. This approach locks individual blocks and fractured zones in place — preventing movement entirely rather than simply guiding fallen material.
Cable net mesh systems use interlocking steel cables to create a high-strength containment layer over large areas of unstable rock. These systems handle larger block sizes and higher energy levels than standard wire mesh.
Rockfall netting provides a lighter-weight mesh solution for slopes with moderate rockfall potential. Access Limited sizes netting installations based on block size distribution, slope angle, and the required retention capacity.
