Road verge marker posts - where to buy???

Bald? er, dash!

I have a section of "garden" (basically a green area) outside my house which is being ruined by trucks/cars pulling in from a busy R road. Everytime I clean it up, some a$$hole will drive onto the edge again a make a mess. So...

I am looking for anywhere that sells road verge marker posts - preferrably plastic springy ones. Are they sold to the general public at all - is there any legal implications to putting these up. Short of putting large white painted stones along the verge, I'm at a loss.

we have tried the large granite stones, kerbs .. all stolen or nicked ..
If you put plastic posts up with a white plastic chain..and a few reflectors

Something like these electric fence posts are flexible and can be easily
removed if you need to cut the grass etc..


The Plastic chain is a huge deterrent for margin huggers.

You would be wise to first check if there may be any potential Public liability concerns with your local council. Ideally you should obtain written approval in the event of any future claims.

Sonnen is right. Be careful. If you encounter planning H&S problems then maybe you could plant with something tough & thorny !
