All openings through the sidewalk or street into any such vault, space, room or structure shall be kept covered and guarded. If the opening is a manhole or trap door, an adequately strong metal cover must be provided and must be equipped with a rough surface so that there will be no danger of any pedestrian slipping on it. If a stairway is provided, the stairway must be properly guarded with a railing at least three feet (3') high to protect pedestrians from injury. A permit must be secured for such openings. (1965 Code, sec. 10-5.05)
