The result of that low fence intended to guide pedestrians to the crossing in the background. Said crossing is set back from the intersection so that driver attention is not divided between watching for other vehicles and watching for pedestrians.
The desire path used to be to the left of the tree and sign, but then they put up that horizontal beam between 2012 and 2014.
