To continue operating, outdoor recreational public spaces have the responsibility to assess and mitigate the risk associated with their activities. Implementing measures to reduce the risk of infection among those using the space means placing barricades or fences to section outdoor spaces into exterior and interior, in addition to rigorous cleaning protocols. While the rules of public spaces might be ambiguous, signs along the fence emphasize following safety measures once you are inside. These demarcations are required to keep the public safe; however, the rules within these spaces may well change the public’s navigation and perceived access.
