Permissions and groundwork in Stourport-on-Severn
Worcestershire County Council is the highway authority covering Stourport-on-Severn's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
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 (the council for Wyre Forest) first — we flag this at survey.
Cable is protected by armour or duct, buried deep enough to avoid garden tools and future paving works, and marked with warning tape. Bases are set in firm ground with the cable entry facing the right way, and on paved routes the bollards are positioned so cables can be pulled through ducts rather than requiring surfaces to be lifted again later.
- In homes, new outdoor circuits are often notifiable building work; a registered electrician can usually self-certify it.
- Limit glare and upward light, and check for any planning or ecology conditions on lighting near sensitive habitats.
What happens on site
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.
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.
Test, aim and certify
The circuit is tested and certified, bollards are checked at night for coverage and glare, and asymmetric heads are turned to face the path.
Specification choices
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Body materials and finishes | Powder-coated aluminium or steel, or stainless steel, in colours to suit the building. |
| Fixings | Anchor cages cast in concrete, base plates on existing slabs, or ground spikes for garden models. |
| Light distribution | 360-degree, asymmetric or louvred heads to light paths while limiting glare and light spill. |
What affects the quote
When we price lighting bollards in Stourport-on-Severn, these make the biggest difference:

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.
