Many rules and regulations are set in place before a project begins to ensure everyone is safe on the airfield. One of the most important components to this process is barricading—and it’s not just tossing a few cones out on the asphalt and calling it a day.
Barricading needs and levels of complexity vary greatly from project to project, so our team works with AOAs, contractors and our internal teams to make sure everything is set up properly before projects begin. We use low-profile, FAA-approved barricades that can withstand harsh UV rays, jet blasts, and other potential hazards unique to airfield environments.
Alder’s barricading services help prevent surface incidents. From contractor employees to airport officials to the traveling public, proper barricading keeps everyone safe.
Barricading is all about making sure everyone is navigating vehicles in designated areas clearly marked by our crew. This ensures convoys are a safe distance away from moving aircraft, as well as a safe distance away from contracting crews working onsite.
Even though aircraft movement areas are established by the airport and FAA guidelines, our teams look for potential trouble areas and work with the airport to find solutions. As a result, barricading helps mitigate:
No matter how large or small the project, all airport construction sites near active aircraft operations must have clearly marked areas. Barricading helps everyone stay safe and compliant.
