Barricades are physical obstructions such as walls, drums, guardrails, screens, tapes, or cones intended to warn and
limit access, to a hazardous area. It can be portable or fixed, have from one to three rails with appropriate markings. Barricades control traffic by closing or restricting the right of way. Signs, signals or tags must be affixed to the barricades and flaggers are used when warning signs cannot control traffic. Follow these guidelines when setting up your perimeter barricade.
