A loading platform (12) for a service vehicle for servicing an aircraft, said loading platform comprising a cantilevered platform arranged to define a bridge between a container body of the service vehicle and a service opening of an aircraft, a pair of side barriers (22,24) being provided on either side of said cantilevered platform, and a safety barrier (54) being provided to extend transversely between the side barriers adjacent an outer end of said cantilevered platform when in an operative configuration, said safety barrier being mounted at an outer end of a pair of mounting arms (56,58), each mounting arm being pivotally mounted on a respective side barrier such that the safety barrier can be swung between said operative configuration, wherein the safety barrier extends transversely between said side barriers to restrain an operator from moving beyond an outer end of said cantilevered platform, and a raised configuration, wherein said safety barrier is positioned above said cantilevered platform such that said operator may pass beneath the safety barrier. |
