Hi Clare,
From a users perspective, it really depends on the colour of the
road/pavement that the bollards are on. Try to avoid silver and grey, these
are often quite difficult. I would suggest that the bollards could be
yellow and black striped, or at least they should have a large yellow band
or white band around the top of the bollard.
Hope this is helpful.

Subject: advice on bollards
We have had to construct bollards on a paved area to prevent vehicle access.
Can anyone advise on appropriate colour(s) or other measures to enhance
their visibility to visually impaired people?
