    What Is a Sidewalk Shed in NYC?

    A sidewalk shed, also known as a sidewalk bridge, is a temporary protective structure installed over a public walkway. Its primary function is to protect pedestrians from potential hazards during building facade work, construction, or restoration.

    Sidewalk bridges are common throughout the city and play an important role in keeping people safe, especially during Local Law 11 or FISP projects. Proper sidewalk bridge installation in New York City requires specific engineering and adherence to strict city codes.
