Heald’s Synergy Bollard system consists of nine fixed bollards on base plates which are bolted together and due to its unique design, there is no requirement to bolt the bollard to the ground. 

Designed for the protection of pedestrians on the footways of bridges, the unique interlocking design provides shared distribution of the load, while patent protected technology offers additional protection by anchoring the bollards into the ground upon impact, preventing the vehicle from penetrating the area which the bollards are protecting.

The product has been crash tested with an array of nine interconnected bollards, with the modular design allowing for additional bollards to be added to expand the area being protected. The bollards remained intact during testing and there was no encroachment of the vehicle onto the foot-way. Minimal dispersion and debris was recorded, ensuring pedestrian safety. The product has been tested at 30-degrees to demonstrate how a vehicle could impact the bollards on a bridge and also with a 90-degree impact for protection in different scenarios.

With foundation depths starting from 130mm, it can take approximately 45 minutes to deploy, excluding civil works. With no requirement for a concrete base, the existing pavers are simply lifted, the bollards are fitted, and the existing pavers are then refitted. 

Where consideration also needs to be taken into account for manhole covers for example, the Synergy can be coupled with the Synergy Expansion Joint System for even more flexibility.

A variety of different bollard covers are also available.
