Rules for steel security bollards in Wales
Bollards on adopted highway are a matter for the highway authority under the Highways Act 1980, so they need its written agreement. On private land the owner's agreement is what matters; listed buildings and conservation areas need a word with the planning team first.

How installation works
Break out and excavate
For root-fixed posts, the surface is cut neatly and each hole is dug to depth, by hand near known services. For base plates, the slab is checked for thickness and soundness.
Set the posts
Posts are set plumb and to a consistent height along the line, and concreted in. Base-plated posts are drilled, anchored with resin and torqued once cured.
Fill and cap
Where specified, posts are filled with concrete and capped so water cannot collect inside the tube.
Reinstate and finish
The surface around each post is made good to match, and reflective bands are fitted. Damaged galvanising from handling is touched up.

Who do I ask about bollards on public land in Neath Port Talbot?

Will galvanised posts rust?
Hot-dip galvanising protects steel for a long time in normal outdoor conditions. Powder coat over the galvanising adds colour and extra protection. Touch up chips promptly in coastal or heavily salted locations.
Why fill a steel bollard with concrete?
Concrete infill adds weight and stiffness, so the post dents less and is harder to cut. It also stops water collecting inside a hollow tube. It is usual for security and impact positions.
