What we check first in Beverley
The highway authority for local roads in Beverley is East Riding of Yorkshire Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Crash-rated 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 (East Riding of Yorkshire Council) first — we flag this at survey.
Rated foundations are large, and excavation is often where projects run into trouble. Footways and forecourts in towns are usually crowded with cables, gas mains, water pipes and old drainage, and a single unexpected duct can stop a bollard position.
- Check that the test certificate matches the exact model, configuration and foundation being installed, and keep it with the site records.
- Balance the gaps: narrow enough to stop a vehicle, typically no more than about 1,200 mm, but wide enough for wheelchair users and buggies — check against Inclusive Mobility guidance.
How the job runs
Set out and excavate
Positions are set out to the drawing and excavated to the tested depth and width, with shoring where the ground needs it. Spoil is removed as work progresses.
Fix reinforcement and set the posts
The reinforcement cage is built to the drawing and the bollards are held to line and level in templates. Concrete is poured to the specified grade, with samples taken for testing if the specification calls for them.
Hand over a build record
You receive photographs of the reinforcement and excavation before each pour, concrete delivery tickets, as-built positions and the manufacturer's product certification, ready for your adviser and insurers.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Decorative covers | Stainless steel, cast or polymer sleeves can be fitted over the steel core to suit a streetscape. Use covers supplied or approved by the manufacturer so the tested product is not altered. |
| Finishes and visibility bands | Galvanised and powder-coated finishes in RAL colours, with contrasting or reflective bands near the top so the posts are visible to pedestrians and drivers. |
| Rated removable or automatic posts | Where an entrance must open for deliveries or emergency vehicles, rated removable, retractable or automatic models are available. Check that the rating stated is for the exact model and position you are buying. |
What moves the price in Beverley
When we price crash-rated bollards in Beverley, these make the biggest difference:
- Number of posts and whether a linked beam system is needed
- Covers, finishes and any integrated lighting
- Buried services, diversions and ground investigation
After installation
Keep inspection records with the original test certificate so the line's condition can be shown to insurers or a security adviser. Movable rated bollards need a planned servicing schedule.

Do I need consent for crash-rated bollards on a public footway in Beverley?
In Beverley, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from East Riding of Yorkshire Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.

Will you design our HVM layout?
No. Scheme design and threat assessment belong with your security adviser, a specialist consultant or the manufacturer's technical team. We install the products they specify, to the tested foundation, and work alongside them on site so the build matches the design.
What happens if a rated bollard is struck?
Make the area safe and have the post assessed before relying on it again. A rated bollard that has absorbed a serious impact is usually replaced, and the manufacturer may need to check the foundation or insert. We can install the replacement to the original tested detail.
