An embedded housing system storing cables below the surface in a protected environment, with a moveable surface lid lying flush with the existing surface and following the crown or slope across the travel path. The cables are readily raised out of the housing structure to obstruct traffic across the travel path, or lowered into the housing system to allow unobstructed traffic passage. Single cables, multiple cables, and utility lines can be enclosed and remain protected within the housing support structure. Once raised, the cables can be attached to an end support. The housing support structure is prefabricated in sections, selectively attached to match the existing crown or slope across the travel path, and then installed below the surface. The flush surface lid of the cable housing structure is only about 8 inches wide, and can be locked while in the closed position. Surface lid sections remain connected while opening simultaneously across the sloping travel path, using an interlocking mechanism. Rain water is inhibited from entering the housing support structure by the surface lid, but if it seeps inside, it will drain away by gravity. Ice and snow is melted by a heating device.
