Consents, ground and services in Morley
The highway authority for local roads in Morley is Leeds City 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.
Bollards on private land often don't need planning permission, but it depends on the council's view, the height and the location; in a conservation area, next to a listed building or under an Article 4 direction, ask the local planning authority (Leeds City Council) first — we flag this at survey.
Breaking out is done carefully near services, particularly where cables have been laid close to posts since the original installation. If the old foundation is cracked from the impact, it is removed entirely; if it is sound and suits the new post, reuse can reduce disruption.
- Keep gaps and visibility bands in line with Inclusive Mobility guidance when replacing posts on pedestrian routes.
- Where bollards were required by a planning condition, a security plan or a lease, check that any change of type still meets that requirement.
How the job runs
Make safe
If a broken post or stub is a hazard, it can be removed or capped first. That is priced separately in writing so you can approve it on its own.
Survey and match
At the free site survey we measure the existing bollards, photograph the line and check the foundations. A fixed written quote sets out like-for-like and any upgrade options.
Remove the old bollard
The damaged post is cut or extracted and the old foundation broken out, checking for services as the hole is opened.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Like-for-like | Same diameter, height, finish and fixing, so the line looks unchanged. |
| Crash-rated upgrade | Replacing unrated posts with tested products, installed to the manufacturer's foundation design and specified with your security adviser. |
| Heavier section | Larger diameter, thicker wall or concrete-filled steel where posts keep getting bent. |
Pricing replacement bollards in Morley
Two Morley jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Surface type and reinstatement
- Size and condition of the old foundation
- Upgrades that need larger foundations
Keeping them working
After replacement, look at why the post failed. Treat new posts as part of your routine inspections: check for lean, chips and faded bands.
We can also service, repair or replace existing posts anywhere in Morley.
Questions about replacement bollards in Morley
Which parts of Morley do you cover for replacement bollards?
We cover all of Morley (LS27) and the rest of West Yorkshire. We also work in Batley, Dewsbury and Ossett.
Do I need consent for bollards on a public footway in Morley?
The highway authority for local roads in Morley is Leeds City 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 replacement bollards in Morley?

What happens to the old bollard?
It is taken away with the broken-out concrete. Steel and iron are recycled where possible. Original heritage bollards can be returned to you if you want to keep them.
Should we replace like-for-like or upgrade?
Like-for-like if the post was hit once in an unusual incident. Consider an upgrade if the same position is struck repeatedly or the post no longer suits how the site is used. The survey will show which makes sense.
