1. The block of roadway requested to be closed shall have:
   • Barricades, secured from the City, positioned in such a manner that blocks all vehicular traffic, and that indicate ROAD CLOSED.
   • All barricades removed immediately upon termination of the event to allow vehicular traffic onto the affected roadway.
