A dropped kerb allows vehicles to enter a driveway or parking area. A dropped kerb is sometimes known as a vehicle crossover or vehicle access.
To apply for a permit to drop the kerb outside a property to give you vehicle access, you must:
- check if you need planning permission
- find a contractor who can do the work
- complete an application form
- pay an application fee
You legally need permission from us before you can start any work. It is an offence to dig up the road unless we have issued you a permit.
