Rules for lighting 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
Survey and lighting layout
A free site survey looks at the routes to be lit, where power can come from, surfaces and buried services. Bollard spacing is set from the product's light data, and you receive a fixed written quote.
Dig cable routes
Trenches are dug between bollard positions and the supply point, avoiding existing services, with cable or duct laid at a suitable depth and warning tape above.
Set the bases
Anchor cages or foundations are cast at each position with the cable entry in the right place, set level so each bollard stands plumb.
Reinstate
Trenches are backfilled and surfaces made good, whether paving, tarmac, gravel or turf.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Worcestershire?
For local roads, Worcestershire County Council; National Highways covers motorways and trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the highway authority's written agreement.
Are solar bollard lights worth it?
For marking edges and low-use paths, they can be, because there is no cabling to install. They give less light than mains bollards and perform poorly in shaded spots and short winter days. For lighting a route properly, mains bollards are more dependable.
Can bollard lights work on a timer or motion sensor?
Yes. Photocells switch them on at dusk, timers switch them off or dim them late at night and motion sensors bring them up when someone approaches. Combining controls saves energy and reduces light pollution.
