Rules for concrete bollards in Wales
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. Accessibility guidance asks for posts at least 1,000 mm high with contrasting tops and no chains between them.

How installation works
Plan lifting
Each bollard's weight is checked, and a lifting method is chosen, such as a vacuum lifter or crane arm, with an exclusion zone set during lifts.
Set the bollards
Each bollard is lowered onto a mortar bed with its dowel grouted in, checked plumb and aligned with its neighbours.
Reinstate and clean
Paving is made good around each base and the bollards are cleaned of mortar and handling marks.
Protect while the grout cures
Bollards are left undisturbed until the grout and foundation have gained strength, with temporary barriers if vehicles use the area. Lines that need to open to traffic quickly can use faster-setting grouts where the product allows.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Pembrokeshire?
For local roads, Pembrokeshire County Council; the Welsh Government covers trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the authority's written agreement.
Should we use concrete or steel bollards?
Concrete suits landscaped and public spaces where appearance and low maintenance matter and where impacts are rare. Steel suits car parks and yards where knocks are frequent, because it bends rather than shatters. Many schemes use both in different places.
Are concrete bollards anti-ram?
Only if that specific product has been crash-tested. Weight alone does not make a bollard crash-rated, and an untested concrete post can crack or shear when hit hard. Tested concrete-clad products exist for security use.
