The Department of Buildings (DOB) conducts routine safety inspections for scaffold work requiring site safety compliance. The Construction Safety Compliance Unit processes:
- Requests to remove sidewalk sheds.
- Requests to remove projects from the Site Safety Program after work has been completed.
- Suspending Scaffold Pre-Use Inspection
You can request a sidewalk shed removal by completing a Construction Safety Compliance Appointment Request form and emailing it to cscuappointments@buildings.nyc.gov.
