A removable traffic control bollard has a post and a base for removably receiving the post. The post has a depending cylindrical part that fits into the tube of the base, held by rider elements that fit inside an upper post member of hollow tubing. The base has a faceplate opening into a downwardly depending tube that is embedded in the ground, or the like, preferably with the faceplate at surface level. The faceplate has two locking apertures over a box, and the post has an aperture in a cleat, through which apertures a padlock U-bolt can be inserted to lock the post to the base. The post can be repeatedly inserted into the base and locked into position and, if desired, subsequently removed by unlocking it and pulling it up out of the base.
