    The paper is concerned with the study of the finite volume schemes for scalar conservation laws with local unilateral constraint of the form \(\partial_t u+\partial_x f(u)=0,\) \(t>0,x\in\mathbb R\), \(u(0,x)=u_0(x)\) and \(f(u(t,0))\leq F(t)\), \(t>0\). This type of problem models road obstacles in traffic. The authors characterize and approximate entropy solutions of the above problem in the \(L^\infty\) setting.
