50% of homes in Halesowen are semi-detached, often with drives side by side up to the boundary. A post placed close to your own car stops it being driven off without blocking your neighbour.

Your council is Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council. Here’s what to know locally, and where to go if someone blocks your drive.
Local parking
The Leasowes in Halesowen is one of three conservation areas in Dudley borough with an Article 4 direction, and Dudley Council says that where these apply, planning permission is needed to lay a new paved driveway or to build, alter or remove gates, fences or walls. Dudley's advisory H bar markings need an existing dropped kerb and are not normally considered for mainly residential areas.

“Wentworth Security did a great job fitting a security bollard for me, in super quick time at a competitive price. And to cap it all, they are really nice people! Highly recommended”
“Fantastic service from start to finish! The team installed my security bollards quickly and professionally. Great communication and quality work — highly recommend!”
“Couldn't recommend this company highly enough. Flo was professional and very helpful with answering all my questions! The bollard was fitted within a few days by Tony who did a great job of explaining how it worked. I now have complete peace of mind that my driveway is secure. Great company to deal with.”
A raised, locked security post in front of your car stops it being driven off the drive, even if a thief has got in or copied a keyless fob. With 41% of Halesowen households running two or more cars, we often fit one post per car. It’s the layer that still works when alarms and trackers don’t.
The same as everywhere we work. Fully fitted, telescopic security posts start from £799, heavy-duty from £949, automatic bollards from £2,999 and parking posts from £310. Every price includes fitting, concrete, drainage, making good and a full clean-up.

Usually not, for a bollard on your own drive. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, check with Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council first.
If they’re on the road across your dropped kerb, contact Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council. If they’re parking on your drive itself, a fold-down or telescopic parking post stops it for good.
