What dropped kerb applications involve
A dropped kerb, or vehicle crossover, is a lowered section of kerb and strengthened pavement that lets a car cross the footway to reach a driveway. It needs consent from the highway authority (your council in England, Wales and Scotland; DfI Roads in Northern Ireland), and the work in the pavement is done by that authority or a contractor it approves.
Before quoting groundworks in Evesham we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Evesham mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Worcestershire, the projects we price include replacing failed edges that have started to crumble, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base. More about dropped kerb applications.
