Our range of Chapter 8 plastic pedestrian barriers offers a reliable and compliant solution for managing foot traffic around roadworks, events, and construction zones. Commonly known as temporary pedestrian barriers, road safety barriers, or plastic Chapter 8 barriers, these products are essential for ensuring public safety and maintaining clear pedestrian routes in areas with potential hazards.
All plastic barriers in this range are fully compliant with Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual, which sets out safety guidelines for signage and traffic management on public highways. Manufactured from high-quality, impact-resistant plastic, these barriers are designed to withstand frequent handling and outdoor use in a wide variety of environments. Their modular design and interlocking capabilities make them easy to install, adapt, and transport, which is ideal for contractors, local authorities, and event organisers who need flexible, regulation-ready solutions.
Chapter 8 compliant pedestrian barriers are suitable for a wide range of uses across multiple industries and sectors. They are commonly deployed around roadworks to separate pedestrians from live traffic or construction zones. In the events industry, they help manage queues, restrict access, and guide foot traffic at festivals, concerts, and sporting events. These barriers are also effective for controlling movement in car parks, transport hubs, schools, shopping centres, and other high-footfall environments where temporary pedestrian safety measures are needed.
Whether your site requires short-term safety management or long-term crowd control infrastructure, these plastic Chapter 8 barriers offer a practical and efficient solution.
At First Fence, we stock leading models such as the Firmus Barrier, Navigator Barrier, Frontier Barrier, Titan Barrier, Avalon Barrier, and Bull Barriers, all designed to deliver outstanding performance in line with Chapter 8 standards.
