What we check first in Bognor Regis
In Bognor Regis, work on adopted pavements and verges needs consent from West Sussex County Council, the local highway authority. Car parks, forecourts and other private land only need the owner's permission.
If your site in Bognor Regis is listed or inside a conservation area, check with the local planning authority (the council for Arun) before choosing a finish — heritage settings often favour cast iron or painted steel over stainless.
Reinstatement keeps walkways level and flush, because a trip edge around a new post in a busy car park creates the very hazard the posts are meant to reduce. 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.
- Keep clear gaps of typically at least 1,000–1,200 mm and keep main walkways wide enough, referring to Inclusive Mobility guidance.
- Use contrasting bands so posts are visible to partially sighted people, and avoid linking chains across routes.
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.
Reinstate
Paving, tarmac or concrete is made good flush around each post, with tactile paving reinstated where it was disturbed.
Add bands and markings
Reflective bands are fitted and any wheel stops or line markings agreed in the scheme are installed.
Finishes and options
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| PAS 170-1 tested bollards | Tested against low-speed vehicle impacts, for sites where proven performance has been asked for. |
| Lit bollards | Low-level lighting bollards double as protection on walkways where the product is robust enough for the job. |
| Concrete-filled steel posts | Root-fixed galvanised and powder-coated steel, the standard unrated choice for walkways and frontages. |
What affects the quote
Two Bognor Regis jobs with the same number of posts can price quite differently. The usual reasons:
- Ground conditions and services along kerb lines
- Working around trading hours and live car parks
- Finishes such as stainless or decorative posts
After installation
Keep a simple note of strikes and their locations; over a year it shows which parts of the car park drivers find awkward, which is useful when the site is next resurfaced or re-lined. Damaged posts near entrances should be dealt with quickly, as a bent post with a torn edge is a hazard in its own right.
For damaged or loose posts in Bognor Regis, repairs and replacements are priced in writing first.
Questions about pedestrian protection bollards in Bognor Regis
Which parts of Bognor Regis do you cover for pedestrian protection bollards?
We cover all of Bognor Regis (PO21 and PO22) and the rest of West Sussex. We also work in Chichester, Littlehampton and Worthing.
Do I need consent for pedestrian protection bollards on a public footway in Bognor Regis?
West Sussex County Council is the highway authority covering Bognor Regis's local roads. If any post would stand on adopted highway rather than your land, that consent is the first thing we sort out.
How much do pedestrian protection bollards cost in Bognor Regis?
In Bognor Regis, typically £265–£1,245 per bollard, supplied and installed, plus VAT, with a minimum job of £625 plus VAT, using our South East guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Do pedestrian protection bollards need to be crash-rated?
Not usually. They deal with low-speed driver errors, so firmly founded steel posts often suffice. Where an owner, insurer or designer wants proven performance, PAS 170-1 tested products are the usual choice.
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.
