Retractable Safety Barriers for Government Transit Hubs,Transport Infrastructure Facilities

ATDC’s premium grade safety barriers (https://www.trellisdoors.com.au/product/commercial-security/safety-barriers-s04-1dd ) are being installed to secure entryways to an increasing number of government transport hubs where high pedestrian foot traffic requires entry gates with certain unique safety features.

Typical such applications include securing the entries to railway stations, ferry wharves, airport terminals and bus depots, many of these buildings also having heritage facades which need to preserve a certain appearance.

ATDC has recently completed an installation of its safety barriers at two recent NSW State Government railway station upgrades, namely at Sydney’s Central Railway Station and also at St Mary’s Railway Station.

Project managers on both installations was well renowned construction engineering firm Laing O’Rourke .

The photographs show the installation at St Mary’s Railway Station of the Double Diamond safety barrier that meets the relevant requirements of Australian Standard AS 4687-4007 for Temporary Fencing and Hoardings, namely The Simulated Climbing Test, The Impact Test and The Foothold Aperture Test

ATDC’s double diamond safety barrier is the only one of its types in Australia that is now safety rated and compliant under the relevant Australian Standards. ATDC’s safety barriers already hold an independently certified WHS certification rating under the relevant Australian OH+S legislation.
