[Tagging] Unremovable bollards

[Philip Barnes]

Often used to make residential streets into deadends to prevent rat-running, to enforce vehicle bans, to prevent delivery vehicles parking on the sidewalk instead of the delivery bay.

In most cases bollards are fixed, there is usually only one or two removable bollards to create a gap wide enough to allow access for maintenance vehicles.
