A traffic cone to delineate areas under construction and to channelize traffic. The traffic cone comprises of two pieces. A first piece is an integral body and base portion. A second piece is a separable and re-usable ballast workpiece. The ballast can be made from various industrial scrap components such as recycled tires. from cars or trucks, conveyor belts, or industrial flexible profiles. The base portion is specifically configured to receive the ballast in a peripheral annular channel defined therein. The ballast weights the first piece and provides stability to it. A central hole on the bottom of the base portion and an open portion of the annular channel provides access for the ballast to be inserted or removed when desired. An upwardly disposed lip prevents the ballast in the annular storage area from unintentionally being dislodged therefrom. The base portion is advantageously shaped to stop the roll of the cone when the cone is overturned on its side. The device has the advantages of having separable ballast being readily removable, and re-usable with less transportation costs than current existing devices.
