What we check first in Evesham
In Evesham, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from Worcestershire County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
If your site in Evesham is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Wychavon) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Upgrades to rated products usually need a completely new, larger foundation. Reinstatement matches the surrounding surface, though weathered paving and older tarmac may leave a visible patch.
- Where bollards were required by a planning condition, a security plan or a lease, check that any change of type still meets that requirement.
- On public highway, the highway authority may need to approve the replacement or carry out the work itself.
From survey to handover
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.
Order the replacement
Matching posts, sockets or castings are ordered, and you see details of any close equivalent before it is confirmed.
Hand over records
Photographs and an itemised invoice are provided, which is useful when recovering the cost from a driver's insurer.
Specification choices
| 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. |
| Making safe | Removing or capping a dangerous broken stub before the replacement is fitted. |
Pricing replacement bollards in Evesham
