The bollard code is triggered by the node having an 'access' tag. So
you need to modify the above rule to add access=yes (my guess is that
the bollard that isn't working doesn't have an access tag). It's
done that way to avoid wasting time looking for the myriad access
related tags that could be used. Instead, we just look for the access
tag.

Cheers,

Mark
