Section 3014 - Bridges over nonlimited access highwaysThe department, as part of its preliminary design process, shall consider installation of protective fencing at all of the following locations on bridges over nonlimited access highways:
(1) On an overpass near a school, playground or other site where it would be expected that the overpass would be frequently used by children.(2) On an overpass in an urban area used exclusively by pedestrians and not easily kept under surveillance by police.(3) On an overpass with a sidewalk, where experience relating to nearby structures indicates a need for protective fencing.(4) On an overpass where there have been incidents of objects being dropped or thrown from the overpass and where increased surveillance, warning signs or apprehension of offenders has not effectively alleviated the problem.Added by P.L.
