(London.CityRegiions.com, July 25, 2012 ) London, UK – Studies from construction builders show that it is not unusual when planning a building project to want to limit entry to certain areas. In particular, there is generally the worry of separating vehicles from popular walkways, so as to reduce the risk of accidents or congestion between the two. A bollard --and in particular, concrete bollards --are one method of providing this. One of the simplest methods of controlling access to a roadway, a bollard is typically nothing more than a wide, cement or metal cylinder that is spotted upright across the entrance of a roadway or walkway. When a series of them are lined together, they can avert any vehicles from passing through.
“There are a variety of benefits of using concrete barriers as opposed to a different material when preparing out a barrier. For one, concrete bollards are really durable compared to other varieties. Short of a major accident, these bollards can last for quite some time without any major wear and tear. Concrete bollards will not fade over time in the sun, unlike some painted metal bollards. Finally, concrete bollards are really inexpensive when compared to some other more elaborate varieties of metal impediments, and can be considered by builders who are on a tight finances.” as remarked by a representative of www.bollardshq.co.uk.
A UK based bollard company also added that, “One consideration--which is both an advantage and possible impediment--is the significant weight of the cement bollard. They will likely have to be installed with large machinery, as human work will not be ample to move them. In most cases, this is a definite advantage: after all, the bollards are principally in place to be an immovable impediment to vehicular targeted traffic in a specific area. The body weight of concrete bollards simply means that builders who may want to move these impediments in the future must take the extra effort necessary into account. However, for most projects, cement bollards are an effective and efficient way to limit access.
