EVU XXIV 2015 – 30 Security measures in the streetscape: Stopping vehicles the hard way


Security measures in the streetscape:
Stopping vehicles the hard way
UK Government Security Advisor

Abstract

The presentation will introduce the audience to the various national security threats from
hostile vehicles and then illustrate the protective security measures that can be found in
the public realm that mitigate against these threats. Most of these measures comprise
non-frangible items of street furniture and the presenter will highlight some of the
associated safety issues for road users that need to be considered at the design stage.
The science behind the development of the countermeasures will be demonstrated –
some of which can be used as an investigative tool for collisions involving vehicles versus
the infrastructure.
