Rules for auto bollard repairs in Wales

Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first. Rising bollards should fail safe, never rise beneath a vehicle, carry clear signs and give the emergency services an override.

How installation works

Describe the fault

Tell us what the bollard is doing, any lights or messages on the controller, recent weather or roadworks, and send photographs of the bollard, pit and controller.

Make the entrance safe

On arrival, the crew makes the bollard and entrance safe, lowering or securing it as agreed with you and coning the area.

Diagnose the cause

Fault logs, loops, drive, electrics and pit are checked in turn to find the underlying cause rather than just the symptom.

Quote and repair

Simple faults within the visit are fixed on the day. Where parts or further work are needed, we quote them in writing and complete the repair once approved.
