Village Voice: We barricade for safety and protection

Posted by Fred Steiner on Wednesday, May 8, 2013

We Barricade for Safety and Protection

One way we strive to keep work sites safe and protected is by placing barricades around sites. There may be bright orange barrels surrounding or covering a site. Tripod barricades are also used, often around sidewalks being repaired.

Yellow security tape may be also strung across work sites, as a visible reminder for you to steer clear of that area.

When doing work to the street tree canopy or near the rights of way, Village employees may place barricades in street parking places. The barricades may be in place overnight, so our work crews can get to the project site first thing in the morning.
