Requires the installation of climb deterrent fencing on certain bridges

This bill requires the New York State Bridge Authority to install special anti-climbing fencing on all bridges it manages. The fencing must be designed to prevent people from gripping or finding footholds, utilizing features like welded wire mesh and spike collars. The law mandates that construction contracts for these bridges include the installation of this safety equipment, with the commissioner overseeing the process. The requirement will take effect three years after the bill becomes law and applies to any new construction contracts started after that date.
