Dropped kerb costs and timescales

Costs

A non-refundable processing fee of £220.30 must be paid for an application to be considered. 

Pay processing fee

This covers administration costs, including:

• Initial site visit and inspection
• General advice
• Quote preparation

On receipt of your application and associated £220.30 fee, an engineer will visit the site to determine its suitability. Following this assessment we will write back to you with the outcome.

This letter will consist of one of the following:

• Site approval for your vehicle crossing works; this will be valid for a period of 12 months from the date of the letter
• Rejection of your application and justification for this outcome

Should your application for a vehicle crossing be approved, our traffic management team will provide a quote for us to carry out these works on your behalf.

Timescales

• After an application has been submitted and the initial fee paid, it will be reviewed and a site inspection arranged.
• You will be notified of the outcome in writing following the inspection.
• This is usually within 40 working days of the application being submitted, although this timescale can vary.
• Once you have confirmed you wish to proceed, and have paid the fee in full, installation will be scheduled. This is usually within 4 months of receiving payment.

Adverse weather, such as snow or heavy rain, can impact on timescales.
