The spacing of bollards depends on their purpose, but as a general guideline, the following is recommended:

  1. For Pedestrian Areas:
    Bollards should typically be placed 1.2 to 1.5 meters apart. This allows easy pedestrian access while preventing vehicle entry.
  2. For Vehicle Restriction:
    For controlling vehicle access, bollards should be spaced slightly narrower than the width of the smallest vehicle you wish to restrict, usually around 1.2 meters apart.
  3. For Traffic Guidance:
    When used for traffic control or parking areas, bollards should be spaced according to local regulations or guidelines to ensure effective flow and visibility.
