TfNSW (RMS) Pedestrian Fencing: AS/NZS-Compliant Pedestrian Protection Systems

Engineered and weld-tested to AS/NZS 1554.1:2014, our systems deliver proven performance for high-risk pedestrian corridors and busy urban interfaces.

Prevent Unsafe
Pedestrian Crossings

Street-Guard® TfNSW RMS Pedestrian Fencing is engineered to stop pedestrians from crossing roads at unmarked or unsafe locations. The configuration provides a continuous, unclimbable barrier, guiding people toward designated traffic-controlled points such as pedestrian crossings and refuges. This predictable pathway reduces unpredictable pedestrian movement, improves driver reaction time, and lowers the risk of collisions.

ABOUT

Street-Guard®
RMS Pedestrian Fencing

Street-Guard® TfNSW (RMS) Type 1 and Type 5 pedestrian fencing is built for busy public spaces where safety and reliability are non-negotiable. Engineered from steel for long-lasting performance, these barriers simplify specification, reduce maintenance, and keep pedestrians protected. Designed to meet Australian standards, they’re a practical, low-risk choice for streets, school zones, stadiums, and high-traffic areas.

Street Guard® Range:

Trusted Pedestrian Safety for Urban and High-Traffic Area

Street Guard® is designed to guide and protect pedestrians in areas where movement needs to be controlled and safety risks are high. From school zones to busy main roads, it provides reliable, RMS-compliant separation between vehicles and foot traffic. The robust steel system and modular layout ensure long-lasting performance and adaptability in a variety of urban environments.

Custom-engineered fencing designed around your site layout, location, and safety requirements, ensuring maximum compliance and protection.

Trusted by councils and contractors across Australia, Type 1 pedestrian fencing combines resilience, compliance, and visibility to safeguard pedestrians.

Originally developed by Roads and Maritime Services, Street-Guard® Type 1 pedestrian fencing is engineered to guide foot traffic predictably and keep pedestrians clear of vehicle paths. Its steel construction and compliant welding practices (AS/NZS 1554.1:2014) ensure long-term reliability in high-movement public environments.

Street-Guard® Type 5 pedestrian fencing is built to Australian road safety standards and designed for dependable impact behaviour. The robust steel framework absorbs and redirects energy on impact, improving pedestrian protection in busy areas. Galvanising thickness exceeds AS/NZS 4680:2006 for enhanced corrosion resistance and extended service life.

Trusted Nationwide for Safe,
Compliant Pedestrian Fencing

Street-Guard® RMS Type 1 and Type 5 systems are engineered, manufactured, and quality-checked to deliver dependable pedestrian protection across high-risk public environments. Trusted by contractors, councils, and civil teams nationwide, we support projects with proven products, compliant fabrication (AS/NZS 1554.1:2014), and technical expertise that simplifies specification and reduces risk. When safety, reliability, and compliance matter, Guard-R is the partner specifiers count on.

Engineered for Compliance

Fabricated to RMS requirements with welding that complies with AS/NZS 1554.1:2014 for consistent, certifiable performance.

Designed for Pedestrian Control

Predictable sightlines and panel geometries help guide pedestrian movement and reduce conflict with vehicle paths.

Built for Public-Space Durability

Hot-dip galvanising exceeds AS/NZS 4680:2006 for long-term corrosion resistance in roadside and high-use environments.

Support from Concept to Installation

Our team assists with drawings, specifications, and site guidance to ensure a seamless, compliant install.

Purpose-Built for Predictable, Safer Pedestrian
Movement in Busy Urban Zones

When uncontrolled crossings or busy pedestrian areas become a safety issue, RMS pedestrian fencing is the reliable, TfNSW-compliant solution. Our systems give architects, designers and builders a clear, predictable way to direct movement while minimising risk. That means safer public spaces, cleaner traffic patterns, and fewer complications on complex projects.

Reduces Risk in High-Incident Locations

Designed for sites with crash histories or unsafe crossing behaviour, RMS fencing creates a continuous barrier that limits unpredictability and helps project teams deliver safer, more compliant roadway environments.

Supports High-Volume Pedestrian Areas

Ideal for school zones, transport corridors, and busy precincts, the fencing maintains clear separation between vehicles and pedestrians, reducing conflict points and easing design coordination.

Improves Safety on High-Speed Roads

On higher-speed arterial routes, it guides pedestrians to controlled crossing points, lowering exposure to fast traffic and helping designers meet strict safety and compliance expectations.

Mitigates Hazard Zones in Public Spaces

Beyond traffic control, the fencing provides protection near drop-offs, drains, embankments, and similar hazards, offering a straightforward, compliant solution without requiring custom engineering.

Expanded TfNSW (RMS) Fencing for Specialised Applications

Our broader RMS range provides engineered, standards-aligned fencing options that enhance safety and preserve uniformity across busy public corridors and roadside zones.

TYPE 1 PEDESTRIAN FENCING

This type of pedestrian fencing was originally made by the Roads and Maritime Services to prevent pedestrians from walking into traffic. Every Street-Guard®️ traffic management fence will produce an immediate change in walking pattern upon installation.

TYPE 5 PEDESTRIAN FENCING

Made to Australian road safety standards, Street-Guard® RMS Type 5 pedestrian fencing is highly reliable. The solid steel construction redirects some of the energy upon impact, increasing the safety of pedestrians and reducing the dangers stemming from heavy vehicle traffic in a busy area.

Type 2

Type 2 RMS pedestrian fencing is a galvanized-steel barrier designed to discourage unsafe crossing and keep pedestrians on designated routes. Its dependable construction makes it suitable for streetscapes, transit corridors, and other high-usage urban environments where controlled movement is essential.

Type 3

Type 3 RMS pedestrian fencing features a robust galvanized-steel frame engineered to prevent climbing, squeezing through, or unauthorised access. High-visibility reflective elements enhance safety in heavy-traffic zones, making it a reliable choice for busy urban and roadside environments.

Type 4

Type 4 RMS pedestrian fencing is a strong, galvanized-steel solution built to restrict crossing and guide pedestrians safely along controlled pathways. Commonly used near school zones, intersections, and other busy public areas, it provides consistent performance in safety-critical settings.

Type 6

Type 6 RMS pedestrian fencing is a sturdy galvanized-steel barrier designed to deter crossing and support orderly pedestrian movement. Often installed near transport hubs and along high-flow walkways, it offers reliable crowd management and enhances safety in complex public spaces.

Type 1 & Type 5

VERGE AND MEDIAN PANELS

Verge Pedestrian Fencing is installed along the edge of a roadway, typically between the footpath and traffic lanes. Its primary purpose is to prevent pedestrians from stepping directly into traffic, guide movement along the footpath, and improve safety in areas such as streetscapes, school zones, and transport corridors.

Median Pedestrian Fencing, on the other hand, is placed in the centre of divided roads or medians. It is designed to control pedestrian crossings and channel movement toward designated crossing points, such as signalised intersections or refuges. Median fencing helps reduce vehicle–pedestrian conflicts and ensures pedestrians only cross where it is safest.
