Access Control for Parks and Green Spaces

Access control measures in parks help manage how and when different users enter or move through the space while maintaining safety and protecting park facilities. Features such as gates, barriers, or bollards can prevent unauthorised vehicle access while still allowing entry for pedestrians, cyclists, and maintenance or emergency vehicles where required. These measures help protect green spaces from damage, reduce anti-social behaviour, and ensure that park areas remain safe and accessible for visitors. In addition, clearly defined access points can help guide visitors and support the overall management and upkeep of the park.
