Rules for crash-rated bollards in England
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. Crash ratings (ISO 22343-1, or the superseded but still accepted PAS 68 and IWA 14-1) only hold when the product is installed to its tested foundation.

How installation works
Start from the specification
We work from the specification issued by your security adviser or the manufacturer: product, rating, positions and foundation drawing. If no specification exists yet, we can put you in touch with the manufacturer's technical team, but we do not set the threat level ourselves.
Free site survey and ground checks
A free site survey looks at access, surfaces and likely services, followed by utility searches, radar scanning and trial holes where needed. You then receive a fixed written quote based on what the survey found.
Cure, protect and reinstate
The posts are protected while the concrete gains strength, and the surface is reinstated to match. The line should not be treated as fully effective until the specified curing period has passed.
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.
Crash-rated bollards in Lancashire: FAQs

How much do crash-rated bollards cost in Lancashire?
In Lancashire, typically £1,945–£9,795 per bollard, supplied and installed on a standard tested foundation, plus VAT, with a minimum job of £3,895 plus VAT, using our North West guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Lancashire?
For local roads, Blackburn with Darwen Council, Blackpool Council and Lancashire County Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.
Why can't the foundation be adjusted to suit our ground?
Because the rating belongs to the bollard and foundation as tested together. Making the hole shallower, narrower or lighter on steel changes how the system behaves on impact. If site conditions force a change, the manufacturer has to approve it in writing, and some changes mean choosing a different product such as a shallow-mount system.
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.
