Consents, ground and services in Bedworth
Warwickshire County Council is the highway authority covering Bedworth's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
Many private-land installations in Bedworth need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at the council for Nuneaton and Bedworth before posts go in.
Reinstatement matches paving, tactile surfaces and kerbs. 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.
- 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.
- Ask the local planning authority whether consent is needed, particularly in conservation areas or near listed buildings.
From survey to handover
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.
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.
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.
Options to consider
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Static rated bollards | Fixed posts for permanent lines where vehicles never need to pass. They are a straightforward rated option to install and maintain. |
| 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. |
| 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. |

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.
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.
