Rules for removable bollards in Scotland
Works in a public road or footway need the roads authority's written consent under the Roads (Scotland) Act 1984. 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
Cut and excavate
A small square of surface is cut out and excavated to socket depth, with a bed of free-draining stone at the bottom so water can leave the socket.
Set the socket flush
The socket is set in concrete with its rim exactly at finished surface level and to the fall of the ground, so the lid sits flat and nothing catches on it.
Reinstate around the socket
Block paving, tarmac or flags are cut tight to the collar and made good. On resin or bound surfaces, the edge is sealed neatly.
Fit posts and hand over keys
Posts are fitted and locked, and the lift-out and refit routine is checked on site. Keys and any storage brackets are handed over.
Removable bollards in Clackmannanshire: FAQs

How much do removable bollards cost in Clackmannanshire?
In Clackmannanshire, typically £245–£845 per bollard with ground socket, supplied and installed, plus VAT (£285–£995 including VAT for homeowners), with a minimum job of £595 plus VAT, using our Scotland guide prices. The fixed figure comes in writing after we've seen the site.
Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Clackmannanshire?
The council is the roads authority for local roads (Clackmannanshire Council); Transport Scotland covers trunk roads. Works in a public road need the roads authority's written consent.
What happens to the hole when the bollard is out?
A lid on the socket closes over it so the surface is flush. Spring-closing lids shut automatically when the post is lifted. That stops trips and keeps debris out.
How heavy is a removable bollard to lift?
It depends on material and size; a slim aluminium post is easy to lift, while a large concrete-filled steel post is not designed for daily handling. If the post will come out every day, say so at the survey and we will suggest something lighter with a handle.
