Dropped kerbs

How to apply

The process is different depending on whether you want to apply for a new dropped kerb or amend an existing one.

New dropped kerbs

If you want to apply for a new dropped kerb:

  1. Decide whether you require a single or double vehicle width crossing.
  2. Check the information on planning applications and potential considerations to see if you need to do anything before you apply.
  3. If you've met all the criteria and you wish to proceed, please ring us to apply.
  4. We'll check the viability of the proposal. If there are no problems, we'll notify you and programme the work with our contractor.
  5. The work is usually arranged within 90 days. If we have any questions we'll contact you within 20 working days.
  6. Once we start the work it usually takes up to 7 days to complete.
  7. To ensure all dropped kerbs are properly constructed we only use approved contractors.
