Which of the following is used to mark road closures?

Barricades are used to mark off road closures and create a physical boundary that prevents vehicles and pedestrians from entering a closed area. They provide a clear, definite barrier that signals the road is not passable, which is essential for safety in work zones. While cones can outline a taper and signs inform drivers of closures, and lights help draw attention, only barricades truly block access and communicate that a section is closed. This combination makes the closure obvious, day or night, and helps protect both workers and road users.
