workplace, construction and traffic safety around

They must always be built to withstand the impact
of ultraviolet rays from the sun, physical impact
from vehicles or equipment and all types of
weather and temperatures. Ultraviolet rays from
the sun is the most harmful issue as this can
possibly weaken the barricade making it less
effective.

Crowd Control Barriers

Odysseybarricade.com, One of the most common uses
for barriers and barricades is for crowd control
and safety. Anywhere that large crowds are
present, barricades of some sort are usually
required to control the flow of the crowd and to
prevent the crowd from going into certain areas.

A common crowd control use is for concerts around
arenas and stadiums where tens of thousands of
people will be trying to get into and out of the
stadium during the same time period.
For concerts, it's important to have barricades
to control the flow of the crowd and to lead them
into the areas where people can check their
tickets and get to their seating areas.

After the concert, it's important for barricades
to be moved so that the crowd is filtered into
the parking lot and the exits of the stadium.
Parades, protests, public gatherings, events,
meetings and many other circumstances where large
crowds will appear are all places where you'll
see barricades or barriers of some sort being
used.

Airport Barriers
Another critical use for barricades and barriers
is at the airport. They can be used inside the
airport for crowd control issues, but more often
they are used outside on the runways. Barricades
and barriers with LED lights and bright, glowing
colors are used for airport runways and the
tarmac where airplanes will be driving to and
from the runway. The barriers will block the
airplanes from going into areas where they
shouldn't be and also block off any hazardous
areas.

Roads and Bridges
Barricades are also important and widely used on
roads and bridges around the world. You'll see
barricades with hazard or warning lights on top
at the end of a road or to block a road that is
under construction.

Barricades will also be seen on the side of the
road to delineate any construction zones. They
can also be used to direct traffic into or out of
a certain area and stop vehicles from entering an
area. Barricades are also used on bridges that
are under construction or being repaired.
