Why would they even want to stop it.

It's the entrance to a school, the road and sidewalk loop around just to the right. The fence protects the grass.

If someone would come there with a screwdriver with a bit appropriate for gutter work, they could unscrew those bolts, steal the fence and dump it far from there. As a community service, of course.

The left side seems to be 5/16th or 1/4 hex heads. But the right side does appear to be rivited same as the spokes. Not sure how they would get that together in the first place though? Better bring a drill with 1/4 bit to drill out just in case. Fresh cobalt bit should have that gone in under a minute
