Dropped Kerbs

A vehicular access, sometimes known as a dropped kerb, is constructed where you want to allow cars access to your property.

Planning permission is required for dropped kerbs onto all classified roads (class A, B and C roads) and sometimes on unclassified roads, for example within a Conservation Area.

Pavement crossings (for car access) can only be carried out by authorised contractors. This is stipulated by Worcestershire County Council highway department.
