Footway Crossing (Dropped Kerb)

Under the Roads (Scotland) Act 1984, permission requires to be obtained from the local Roads Authority before a footway crossing can be installed. A footway crossing is formed by lowering the kerbs to allow residents to drive a vehicle across the footway to gain access between their property and the public road.

On receipt of an application for a footway crossing we will carry out an assessment on site to ensure that the proposed location is suitable in both road safety and construction terms.

Once approved, you can arrange for a private civil engineering contractor subject to approval by the council, who will complete the appropriate Road Opening Permit.

To apply for permission, please complete the footway crossing (dropped kerb) application. An acknowledgement will be sent to you.
