RMS Type-1 Pedestrian Fencing:

Safer Crossings, Better Control

High-risk pedestrian zones demand engineered solutions. Street-Guard® Type-1 fencing is RMS Type-1 compliant and designed for busy roads, school crossings, and overpasses. 

It delivers verified impact performance, clear pedestrian separation, and long-term durability. 

Modular panels, certified welds (AS/NZS 1554.1:2014) and durable finishes give you a system that’s easy to specify, quick to install and simple to adapt without compromising visibility or compliance.

Features and Benefits

Adaptable, Durable & Proven in High-Risk Pedestrian Zones

RMS-Certified, Standards-Compliant Safety
Engineered to RMS Type-1 specifications with third-party weld testing to AS/NZS 1554.1:2014, Street-Guard® provides verifiable structural integrity, consistent impact performance, and assured compliance for safety-critical public spaces.

Modular, Specification-Ready Design
Panels, posts, and brackets are engineered for modular deployment, enabling fast installation, staged works, and future reconfiguration while maintaining compliance with RMS and AS/NZS standards.

Built to Last for Decades
Constructed from steel with hot-dip galvanising that exceeds AS/NZS 4680:2006 and powder coating that exceeds AS 4506-2005, the fence stands up to harsh Australian weather, corrosion, and repeated use.

Safe Impact Behavior
Designed to collapse as an integrated unit on impact, they reduce transmitted force and improve pedestrian safety, which is an essential requirement in RMS-controlled transport zones.

Support You Can Count On
Our engineering team provides specification guidance, weld certifications, coating documentation, and installation recommendations to ensure full compliance across design, tender, and construction phases.

DESIGN: Engineered for Safer, Smarter Pedestrian Control

Purpose-Built for High-Risk Pedestrian Zones

Street-Guard® Type-1 fencing is engineered to manage pedestrian movement in safety-critical areas. Manufactured with welds compliant to AS/NZS 1554.1:2014 and corrosion protection exceeding AS/NZS 4680:2006 and AS 4506-2005, it delivers consistent, long-term performance in demanding outdoor conditions.

Street-Guard® TfNSW Pedestrian Fencing (formerly RMS Pedestrian Fencing) is purpose-designed to prevent unsafe pedestrian crossings along busy roads, intersections, and traffic corridors. The Type 1 pedestrian fencing configuration provides a continuous, unclimbable barrier that stops pedestrians from stepping into traffic at unmarked or dangerous locations.

A modular system designed for rapid deployment with minimal public disruption. Ideal for projects requiring staged installations while maintaining compliance across all installed components.

Street-Guard® TfNSW Pedestrian Fencing plays a critical role in reducing the risk of vehicle–pedestrian conflicts on busy roads and urban corridors. The approved RMS Type 1 pedestrian fencing layout creates a predictable and controlled environment where pedestrians are guided along safe pathways and prevented from entering the road unexpectedly.

Modular panels allow for realignment, extensions, or relocation as site conditions change, maintaining structural integrity and coating compliance throughout.

Street-Guard® combines rigid, durable construction with certified welds and high-performance coatings to provide safe, reliable pedestrian separation. Its design directs foot traffic efficiently, ensuring controlled pedestrian movement in busy public spaces while maintaining full compliance with RMS standards and AS/NZS requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TfNSW Type 1 pedestrian fencing?

TfNSW Type 1 pedestrian fencing is a steel pedestrian-control fence based on the Transport for NSW R0800 Fencing Series. It is used to guide pedestrians toward designated crossings and discourage uncontrolled access to the roadway. Type 1 is the familiar flat-top configuration and is widely specified for road verges, intersections, school zones, pedestrian crossings, transport corridors and other locations where predictable pedestrian movement is important.

Yes. ‘RMS Type 1’ is the legacy industry term for the pedestrian fencing formerly associated with Roads and Maritime Services. Roads and Maritime Services functions now sit within Transport for NSW, so current project documentation may refer to TfNSW pedestrian fencing, the R0800 Fencing Series, RMS fencing or RTA-style fencing. When specifying a new project, the current TfNSW standard drawings and project requirements should take precedence.

Type 1 pedestrian fencing is detailed in the TfNSW R0800 Fencing Series. The standard Type 1 verge panel is associated with drawing R0800-15 and the Type 1 median panel with R0800-16, together with the relevant post, footing, base-plate and general fencing details. Designers and contractors should check the current TfNSW issue of the R0800 series when preparing specifications, shop drawings and procurement schedules.

Verge and median panels are configured for different positions relative to traffic. The orientation of the internal flats is arranged to preserve sight lines for motorists and pedestrians approaching from the relevant direction. This is why a verge panel should not simply be substituted for a median panel, or vice versa. The project drawings should clearly identify which configuration is required along each fence run.

The standard R0800 pedestrian-fencing arrangement is generally based on posts at 2,000 mm centres. Shorter bays can sometimes be required at ends, corners or constrained locations, but increasing the spacing beyond the standard drawing should not be assumed to be compliant. Any non-standard panel length or post spacing should be coordinated against the current TfNSW drawings and the project designer’s requirements.

Yes. Type 1 pedestrian fencing can be supplied for base-plated or in-ground post installations, subject to the applicable R0800 post details and the project’s substrate and civil design. Base-plated posts can suit concrete footpaths, bridges and other formed surfaces, while in-ground posts are commonly used in verge applications. The footing or fixing arrangement should be confirmed before ordering so the correct posts and components are supplied.

Type 1 is commonly specified beside busy roads, at intersections, school zones, pedestrian crossings, refuge approaches, transport corridors, overpasses and public precincts where pedestrians need to be guided away from unsafe crossing points. It is particularly useful where the project requires a recognised TfNSW R0800 configuration rather than a generic tubular or decorative fence. Final location and layout remain matters for the road or project designer.

Send the relevant civil, landscape or roadwork drawings together with the project location, approximate quantities, required finish and whether the fence is verge or median, base plated or in-ground. Guard-R Group can review the package and prepare supply pricing for the applicable Street-Guard® components. Providing the R0800 type and finish at enquiry stage helps reduce assumptions and speeds up tender pricing.
