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

How installation works

Check the surface

Slabs and decks are checked for thickness, reinforcement and waterproofing before drilling. Weak tarmac may need a concrete pad or socket base.

Fix the bases

Holes are drilled and cleaned, resin anchors or bolts are set and the bases fixed and torqued once cured. Socket bases are set flush in concrete.

Fit posts and test

Posts are fitted and bent by hand to confirm they return upright, and reflective sleeves are applied.

Hand over spares and records

Post and base details are recorded so replacements match, and spare posts can be left on site for busy locations. Staff are shown how a post is swapped on its base.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Staffordshire?

For local roads, Staffordshire County Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.

Will a flexible bollard stop a car?

No. It is designed to bend and recover, so a car can push past it. It marks the line and discourages drivers from crossing it. Where a vehicle must be physically stopped, use a rigid bollard.

Do flexible bollards damage vehicles?

Typically very little in a low-speed knock, which is a large part of their appeal. They may leave a scuff on paintwork. A rigid post in the same position would usually dent the vehicle and bend itself.
