Herding Beachgoers out of the Construction Site

Visitors and beachgoers to the beach at Salisbury Beach State Reservation have generally been respectful of the fences and signs informing people to stay out of the construction because of the obvious dangers posed by large tractors and truck moving around the site. I was surprised on a hot day in late August to find some beach goers having walked around the end of the fence at low tide into the construction site. A few had even gotten up on the jetty itself. This occurred during the week when the construction site was in operation. One of the construction crew drove down to the beach area with the tracked dumped truck and kicked the beach goers out. I caught on video the dump truck "herding" two people metal detecting off the beach.
