Dropped kerbs on private land and new developments
Where a dropped kerb sits entirely on private land, such as inside a development before the roads are adopted, the council approval process described above doesn't apply in the same way, though other site specific rules may still apply depending on the scheme. We install dropped kerbs and vehicle crossovers as part of road construction on new housing developments, working alongside developers from the groundwork stage through to the finished surface.
We also fit tactile paving at pedestrian crossing points where it's needed, so the crossing is clearly marked and usable for pedestrians with visual impairments, in line with standard practice at dropped kerb crossings.
