What we check first in Coedpoeth
In Coedpoeth the highway authority for local roads is Wrexham County Borough Council. We confirm whether the ground is adopted highway before quoting, because pedestrian protection bollards on a public footway need its agreement first.
Many private-land installations in Coedpoeth need no planning application, but the rules don't clearly cover bollards, so listed buildings, conservation areas and prominent frontages are worth raising with the planning team at Wrexham County Borough Council before posts go in.
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. Positions are scanned and hand-dug before committing, and foundations are sized for the ground found rather than a fixed hole size.
- Record why posts are where they are in the site's risk assessment, especially at drive-thrus and seating areas.
- Keep clear gaps of typically at least 1,000–1,200 mm and keep main walkways wide enough, referring to Inclusive Mobility guidance.
From survey to handover
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.
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 |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| Stainless or architectural finishes | Stainless sleeves or decorative posts for shop entrances and public-facing frontages. |

Keeping them working
Touch up chipped coatings, renew faded bands, and check the surface around each base for cracks that suggest movement. 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.
If posts in Coedpoeth are later hit or damaged, we can repair or replace them — see bollard repairs.
