Let Us Guide You Through Your Dropped Kerb Application

At SEA Civils, we understand that navigating council applications can be daunting. We're here to help you through every step of the dropped kerb application process with Cheshire West and Chester Council, ensuring a smooth and compliant installation for your property.

Understanding Dropped Kerb Requirements

Under Section 184 of the Highways Act 1980, it is a legal requirement to have a properly constructed vehicle crossing if you want to drive vehicles across a footpath or verge to access your property. Using a standard kerb or driving across a verge without proper permission is an offence.
