Place a formal notice IN WRITING to the Project Manager that you have informed them of the state of the fencing, requiring that a descision is taken - explain in a detatched and formal way the situation and the solution, including the provision of Heras Fencing, signs etc..
cc the letter to the H&S in the council, as you would be sure they will be just as concerned as the Project Managers about the safety implications.
That way, you have placed a document into the system, one which requires action - or if no action is taken, then the blame for any injury is firmly in their court.
It is reasonable to place the required barriers to public harm as is possible, but if the little b****rs get in and fall down a hole, it will not be because you made it easy for them.
