Our Service Areas
We carry out dropped kerb works across Bristol and surrounding areas. This includes Bedminster, Clifton and Easton or as far afield as Keynsham, Bath and Portishead.
Often referred to as a crossover, a dropped kerb lowers the pavement to enable vehicles to drive from the road to your driveway. This requires adherence to regulations and planning permission.
We execute contracts with liability insurance and by following The Highways Act 1980. In some instances, Bristol residents need to apply via Bristol City Council for planning permission. This may include bus routes, your proximity to local schools and hospitals or classified roads.
Regulations also insist the drive must have adequate drainage and visibility of traffic. Dropped kerbs aren’t only limited to drives. They can can be installed in the following areas:
Car Parks
Pathways
Disable Access
Cycle Paths
The principal reason for a dropped kerb is to improve accessaibility for cars, the elderly and disabled. Done correctly, it can also underline the value of your home.
For dropped kerb installation in Bristol, Somerset and south Gloucestershire, we can help. We cover central Bristol and operate within a 30 mile radius at our clients request.
From application to execution, benefit from our experience in driveway construction, access and general landscaping at competitive rates with Bristol Driveway Services.
