The Bridge District has spent the last two months asking people to submit their comments about the idea. Of the more than 4,000 people that answered a questionnaire, 50.13 percent favored some type of barrier, and 49.87 percent wanted no barrier at all.
When asked which design would be best, most sided with an eight-foot tall vertical fence, followed by a steel cable net extending 20 feet from underneath the span.
The Bridge District board could decide on a barrier design as early as October.
