What are Pedestrian Guardrail standards?

  • BS 7818: 1995 specifies the requirements for pedestrian and other non-vehicle user restraint systems in metal for use on roads and highways.

Pedestrian guardrail should be standing at a height of 1050mm above ground level and set back 450mm from kerb face, the main purpose of pedestrian guardrail is to lead pedestrians to safe crossing points along busy highways. Pedestrian guardrail is normally set in a 300mm x 300mm x 450mm deep foundation.

Guardrails are usually fitted to prevent people from dangerous areas and to keep people safe from vehicles on roads. The standards are put in place to make sure the guardrails are made correctly and are safe.
