unbarricading
Clearing the blockade
Unbarricading is removing barricades or obstacles that block passage.
The word appears in progressive contexts describing the act of clearing what was previously blocked off: Workers began unbarricading the street after the protest ended.
It can be literal or figurative—unbarricading a doorway or unbarricading one's heart.
