It specifies the installation of reinforced concrete security bollards, requiring a minimum of 5 feet clearance around existing fire hydrants and other structures such as lamp posts and trees. The plans emphasize adhering to established construction codes, including maintaining clear landing lengths and providing adequate access around existing walkways and ramps. Detailed construction limits indicate a phased approach to the project, addressing various aspects of site preparation and logistics. Special attention is given to prevent overlapping bollard placements with existing vaults and manholes to ensure safety and structural integrity. Overall, this project reflects the government's initiative to enhance physical security measures while complying with regulatory standards.
