What You Need To Know About Drop Kerbs

When installing a new driveway, it’s typically required to lower the kerb outside your property. This ensures convenient access without the need to maneuver your vehicle up and down the kerb each time.

Modifying the pavement adjacent to your residence with a dropped kerb necessitates a permit from the local council. Keep in mind that the pavement is public property, so altering it requires permission, even if it’s directly outside your home.

Considerations For A Dropped Kerb

Your local authority will evaluate several factors when reviewing your application for a kerb dropping, including:

The potential impact on pedestrians caused by the lowered kerb.
The classification of the road where your residence is located.
Any prior approvals or rejections for kerb alterations on your street.
The type of vehicle intended for parking in your new driveway.

It’s essential to understand that the presence of dropped kerbs in your neighborhood doesn’t guarantee approval for your application.

Reasons To Consider Installing A Dropped Kerb

Enhanced Accessibility: Installing a dropped kerb provides legal access for your vehicle to cross over a public pathway and enter your property seamlessly.
Vehicle Protection: With a dropped kerb in place, your car can smoothly transition onto and off the pavement without risking damage to its tires, wheels, or suspension.
Parking Enforcement: It’s against the law to obstruct a dropped kerb with parked vehicles. This discourages others from blocking your driveway, ensuring unhindered access for your vehicle to come and go as required.
