A traffic bollard is illuminated by a base lamp 11 protected by a glass or plastics window 9 and shining up onto one or more plastics mirrors such as 15. The mirror 15 shown is replaceably held by lips 16, 17, at an angle of 45 DEG such that the light is reflected generally horizontally onto a translucent or semi- translucent portion 4 of the bollard. In a modification the planar mirror 15 is replaced by an inverted pyramid. The bollard base is surrounded by a ramp 14 and, in use, when the bollard is struck by a vehicle, although the bollard itself may become detached from the bollard base the lamp contained therewithin is protected by the window 9 and continues to shine. The bollard itself may be replaced upon the bollard base, if it is not severely damaged, by a push or snap-fit. <IMAGE> |
