Origin
Summary
Recently, I have heard from the homeowner of 19 Silverthorn Avenue requesting bollard repair and replacement along the flankage of their property. Bollards act as both a physical and visual barrier, protecting people and property from damage without impeding the public right of way.
In the reported case, the resident has a fence around their front yard and bollards along its flankage, which have been damaged because of vehicle impact.
As a result, I am recommending that the damaged bollards be replaced in order to protect property and enhance community safety.
