Rules for pedestrian protection bollards in Wales
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
Watch how the site works
The free site survey looks at where cars park, where people walk and queue, and where incidents or near misses have happened. You receive a fixed written quote with positions marked.
Set out the line
Posts are set out allowing for bumper overhang and keeping clear routes for pedestrians, trolleys and wheelchairs.
Excavate and set
Each position is cut, dug and checked for services, and the posts are set plumb in concrete to a consistent height.
Add bands and markings
Reflective bands are fitted and any wheel stops or line markings agreed in the scheme are installed.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Newport?
For local roads, Newport City Council; the Welsh Government covers trunk roads. Bollards on adopted highway need the authority's written agreement.
Will bollards block trolleys?
They should not if gaps are planned for trolleys and wheelchairs. Main routes to trolley bays need wider openings. We set gaps to suit the way the site works.
Should bollards be added at a drive-thru order point?
Often, yes, where people queue or sit beside the lane. Posts should follow the curve of the lane and be closest together at corners, where drivers tend to misjudge the turn. The positions are agreed on site with the operator.
