Do You Need a Dropped Kerb?

Are you thinking about creating a driveway entrance to your home that crosses a public footpath? If so, you'll definitely require a dropped kerb. This essential feature is essentially a sloped section of the pavement, designed specifically to provide safe and legal vehicle access.

It's important to understand that driving your car over a public pavement where no official dropped kerb exists is against the law. Therefore, before you can begin construction, you must obtain approval from your local council to have one installed.
