The Fishergate Bollard made its return to Preston’s high street scene during the weekend.
Lancashire County Council has put the plinth back in place, along with the other branded bollards.
Part of the £3.4million shared space scheme the bollard has been absent since April.
It’s claimed numerous bumpers during its years at the end of Fishergate where it meets Corporation Street.
The bollard has inspired a Twitter account which takes the concrete pillar into the digital world.
The county council’s cabinet is meeting this week to decide whether to reintroduce the controversial bus lane into Fishergate.
