something that prevents movement or access

a tall concrete wall blocks the path where construction workers need to walk through. The workers stand at the base looking up at the imposing structure with frustrated expressions. They point toward the wall and gesture to each other about finding another way around. The solid concrete completely prevents them from crossing to the work area on the other side. Other workers in the background also stop their activities to assess the blocked pathway. something that prevents movement or access
