What we check first in Warwick
Warwickshire County Council is the highway authority covering Warwick's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
If your site in Warwick is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (Warwickshire County Council) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Positions are scanned and hand-dug before committing, and foundations are sized for the ground found rather than a fixed hole size. Car park edges and walkways tend to be built quickly over shallow hardcore, and their kerb lines often carry lighting cables, drainage channels and ducts for EV chargers or signs.
- Use contrasting bands so posts are visible to partially sighted people, and avoid linking chains across routes.
- Record why posts are where they are in the site's risk assessment, especially at drive-thrus and seating areas.
From survey to handover
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.
Add bands and markings
Reflective bands are fitted and any wheel stops or line markings agreed in the scheme are installed.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Wheel stops and kerbs | Used with bollards to stop cars before they reach the posts, reducing daily knocks. |
| Stainless or architectural finishes | Stainless sleeves or decorative posts for shop entrances and public-facing frontages. |
| Visibility bands | Reflective and contrasting bands help drivers and partially sighted pedestrians see posts. |
What moves the price in Warwick
When we price pedestrian protection bollards in Warwick, these make the biggest difference:
- Working around trading hours and live car parks
- Reinstatement of tactile paving and walkway surfaces
- Finishes such as stainless or decorative posts
Looking after them
Damaged posts near entrances should be dealt with quickly, as a bent post with a torn edge is a hazard in its own right. Protection bollards take the knocks they are there for, so inspect them regularly and after any reported strike.
For damaged or loose posts in Warwick, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.

Do I need consent for pedestrian protection bollards on a public footway in Warwick?
The highway authority for local roads in Warwick is Warwickshire County Council; motorways and trunk roads sit with National Highways. Pedestrian protection bollards on the adopted footway are a matter for the highway authority, so we only install there with its written agreement.
How much do pedestrian protection bollards cost in Warwick?

Are wheel stops enough on their own?
Wheel stops help drivers judge where to stop but a car can mount them with a firm press on the accelerator. Used with bollards, they reduce daily knocks on the posts. On their own they are not a barrier.
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.
