Rules for bollard removal jobs in England
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.

How installation works
Survey what is in the ground
The free site survey identifies bollard types, likely foundation sizes, any power or ducts, and what the area will be used for next. You receive a fixed written quote for the agreed level of removal.
Check consents and reasons
Before removal, check whether the bollards were required by a planning condition, a lease, a security plan or the highway authority, and whether they protect something such as a meter or a building corner.
Remove posts and foundations
Posts are cut off or extracted, foundations broken out where agreed, and sockets, cassettes and ducts removed or capped.
Backfill and reinstate
Holes are backfilled in compacted layers and the surface reinstated to match, so there is no settlement or trip edge.

How much do bollard removal jobs cost in West Yorkshire?

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in West Yorkshire?
For local roads, Bradford Council, Calderdale Council, Kirklees Council, Leeds City Council and Wakefield Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.
Should bollards be cut off or fully removed?
Cut off if the area is staying as it is and nothing will be built or dug there later. Fully remove if you are resurfacing, planting or installing something new, because buried concrete gets in the way. The quote can price both.
Do we need permission to remove bollards?
Sometimes. Bollards required by a planning condition, lease, security plan or the highway authority should not be removed without checking. Historic bollards in conservation areas may also be protected.
