Pedestrian Protection
Overview
Construction, renovation, and maintenance work often takes place near sidewalks, entrances, or other areas where pedestrians continue to pass by. Pedestrian protection structures including covered walkways and protective canopies create a safe, defined path for the public, helping maintain access to surrounding areas while work continues overhead or alongside.
