Pavement vehicle access (often known as dropped kerbs or crossovers)
If you wish to park your car on your property the kerb will have to be lowered and the pavement strengthened in front of the property. It is also sometimes necessary for street furniture (lamp-posts, man-hole covers etc) to be moved.

Any works done to provide a crossing will be paid for by the applicant.

You can download the guidance notes (including guideline prices) and an application form below. The form is available in Adobe's pdf format.
