Scaffolding Safety

This is scaffolding on a building. It is right in the middle of the sidewalk. Workers wrapped some of the poles in foam so that people walking by wouldn't get hurt if they bumped into them. They also put up cones and bars so that people won't walk under the scaffolding.

Note the yellow strip along the middle of the sidewalk. That is a guide for blind people. Click on the label "disability" below to find out more about it.
