The following explains the requirements and how they may be met using
barrier
planks which are red and spinal
medical
frames
white and manufactured in fully retro-reflective materials

Barrier planks are required to carry out three functions :- As a traffic
barrier

, spinal
medical

When a traffic lane is closed for works to take spinal
medical
frames
place, the regulations require this to be done with a retro-reflective red and white
barrier
plank placed across the lane

As a pedestrian
barrier
frames
, spinal

Pedestrians must be separated from the works spinal
medical
frames
by a
barrier
which is conspicuous and mounted as part of a portable fencing system

Pedestrian
barrier
planks may be of several different contrasting colours; yellow, white or orange colours are best spinal
medical
frames
detected by partially sighted people, but red and white is one of the acceptable combinations

All
barrier
s facing vehicular traffic should be of the fully retro-reflective red and white form
frames

Red spinal
medical
frames
and white
barrier
planks do not have to be used for pedestrian
barrier
s or tapping rails but, if they are, they must be retro-reflective .There are other points to note about the use spinal
medical
frames
of
barrier
planks in portable fencing systems: The traffic
barrier
is not needed if the works are protected by a conspicuous vehicle
frames
, spinal

Pedestrian
barrier
systems must be rigid enough to guard pedestrians spinal
medical
frames
from traffic, excavations, plant or materials
frames

medical
frames
They must be placed with sufficient clearance to prevent pedestrians falling into the excavation and, when placed to create a temporary footway in the carriageway parallel spinal
medical
frames
to the traffic stream, must be protected by a row of traffic cones between the
barrier
and the traffic stream
frames

Where long excavations are sited in situations where pedestrians are not expected spinal
medical
frames
to cross from the opposite side,
barrier
s on the traffic stream side of the works area do not need the tapping rail
frames

In these circumstances, on an unrestricted road, the
barrier
on spinal
medical
frames
the traffic stream side can be replaced with an additional row of cones.Use pedestrian
