Crash-rated equipment only helps if it is planned, staged, and placed where vehicles can realistically reach crowds. This article gives municipal teams a repeatable process for deploying Delta’s DSC50 “S” Barrier for temporary crowd protection during street closures, from mapping through teardown and storage.

A vehicle entered the McNamara Terminal and struck a ticket counter. Six people were injured. The driver was detained. The cause was unknown at the time. The outcome could have been far worse. This incident highlights a problem the industry has understood for years. Terminal areas are exposed by design.

Data center security is not only cyber. Vehicle approaches, service yards, and deliveries can create exposure if vehicle mitigation is not planned. This article explains how to use crash-rated bollards and barriers to protect four high-priority zones, and how to think about M30 vs M50 ratings as part of a layered plan.

A temporary pedestrian safety zone is a short-term, clearly bounded walking and gathering area created inside a street closure or lane closure. Good designs pair standard temporary traffic control (TTC) with a vehicle-stopping layer at the few points where vehicles can still approach crowds.
