Consents, ground and services in Bushey
In Bushey, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Hertfordshire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
Many private-land installations in Bushey 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 Hertsmere before posts go in.
Sockets and cassettes are reset to the exact finished surface level, with drainage restored beneath. Many repairs are really foundation repairs.
- On heritage bollards in conservation areas, repair and reset rather than replace where the conservation officer expects it.
- Check whether the bollard is on public highway or council land; the highway authority may need to authorise work or carry it out.

Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Bushey?

Can you repair a bollard we did not install?
Yes. We repair fixed, removable, telescopic, fold-down and other manual bollards whoever installed them. Photographs help us identify the type and find matching parts.
