What we check first in Evesham
Worcestershire County Council is the highway authority covering Evesham's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
Many private-land installations in Evesham need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at the council for Wychavon before posts go in.
Where existing bollards are being upgraded, old cables and ducts are tested before being reused. Exit and safety loops must be cut into sound tarmac or concrete; cracked or patched surfaces cause loop faults, so poor areas are resurfaced first.
- If you use ANPR or video, check your obligations for handling personal data, including signage, a privacy notice and how long records are kept.
- Keep access requests and safety devices separate, so an access device can never force a bollard to rise while a vehicle is over it.
From survey to handover
Understand the users
At the free site survey we ask who uses the entrance, how many, how often they change, and how visitors and deliveries arrive. That decides the entry method, and a fixed written quote follows.
Programme and test
Users, plates, codes and schedules are entered, and every entry and exit route is tested with vehicles, including what happens when access is refused.
Hand over
You are shown how to add and remove users, read logs and use the emergency override. Credentials and settings are recorded.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Fob, card and tag readers | Proximity readers on a pedestal at window height. Lost fobs can be deleted individually without changing anyone else's access. |
| Remote handsets and app control | Handsets for small user groups; app control for sites that want to add and remove users from a phone. |
| Exit loops and timers | Loops lower the bollard for vehicles leaving; timers hold it down during set windows. |
What affects the quote
Our West Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Evesham firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Duct lengths and surface reinstatement
- Number of users and how they will be managed
- Pedestals, lighting for cameras and signage
Looking after them
Remove users, fobs and plates when people leave, change keypad codes periodically and check that intercom phone numbers are still current. Clean camera lenses and reader faces, check pedestal fixings and look for damage from vehicles.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Evesham.
Questions about bollard access control systems in Evesham
Can you install bollard access control systems anywhere in Evesham?
We cover all of Evesham (WR11, WR12 and WR10) and the rest of Worcestershire. We also work in Tewkesbury, Stratford-upon-Avon and Worcester.
Who gives permission for bollards on the pavement in Evesham?
The highway authority for local roads in Evesham is Worcestershire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
What's a typical price for bollard access control systems in Evesham?
In Evesham, typically £595–£11,995 per entrance, controls supplied, installed and commissioned, plus VAT, using our West Midlands guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Will vehicles leaving get trapped?
Not if exit detection is fitted. An exit loop in the road lowers the bollard automatically as a vehicle approaches from inside. On some sites a push button or exit reader is used instead.
Do ANPR cameras at our entrance raise data protection issues?
They collect personal data, so you need to handle it properly, including signage, a privacy notice and sensible retention periods. Your data protection adviser can confirm what applies to your site. We can set retention and access options on the system to match.
