Consents, ground and services in Evesham
Worcestershire County Council is the highway authority covering Evesham'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 Wychavon) first — we flag this at survey.
Raised kerbs also change the picture: a high kerb slows a wheel but does not stop a bumper, so the post still needs to sit within reach of the overhang rather than behind it. Where bollards protect a shopfront, the building's own foundations and any canopy columns may sit close to the line, which limits how deep and wide each base can go.
- If a tested product has been requested, confirm PAS 170-1 or another stated standard and install to the tested foundation.
- Record why posts are where they are in the site's risk assessment, especially at drive-thrus and seating areas.
Installation, step by step
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.
Agree a plan for live trading
Work is phased so entrances and walkways stay open, with each section fenced while it is dug and set. Busy sites often prefer early starts or quieter weekdays.
Choosing the right spec
| Option | Detail |
|---|---|
| Stainless or architectural finishes | Stainless sleeves or decorative posts for shop entrances and public-facing frontages. |
| Concrete-filled steel posts | Root-fixed galvanised and powder-coated steel, the standard unrated choice for walkways and frontages. |
| PAS 170-1 tested bollards | Tested against low-speed vehicle impacts, for sites where proven performance has been asked for. |
What moves the price in Evesham
Our West Midlands guide prices are a starting point; the survey in Evesham firms them up. What tends to move them:
- Unrated steel or PAS 170-1 tested products
- Working around trading hours and live car parks
- Number of posts and length of line
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. Touch up chipped coatings, renew faded bands, and check the surface around each base for cracks that suggest movement.
If posts in Evesham are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.

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.
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.
