    Problems encountered with dropped kerbs

    The dropped kerb projects are facilitated to enhance accessibility but they also have challenges and issues that need to be carefully considered.

    • One area of concern is structural engineering which not only assists in the resolution of the issues but also manages the requirements as contained within the building regulations.

    • Another common problems is the interaction with existing system components which are underground, such as pipes and cables.

    • Building codes sometimes set out the basic and minimum requirements that have to be observed by designers in kerb design and construction.

    Failure to adhere to these regulations can result in project delays, costly revisions, and even legal consequences.

    FAQ'S

    What is a dropped kerb, and why do I need one?

    A dropped kerb is a section of the pavement lowered to allow vehicles to cross from the road to a driveway or property. It is essential for providing safe and legal access for vehicles, particularly for those with mobility needs or larger vehicles.

    Do I need permission to install a dropped kerb?

    Yes, you will need permission to install a dropped kerb. This typically requires an application to your local council to ensure compliance with regulations and safety standards.

    Using a driveway without a dropped kerb is illegal in the UK, as it obstructs pedestrian pathways and causes potential safety hazards. The legal consequences can include fines, penalty charges, and the requirement to restore the kerb to its original state.

    Does a dropped kerb affect a property value?

    A dropped kerb can positively impact property value by providing easier access for vehicles, making the property more appealing to potential buyers. However, the effect may vary depending on location and local parking demand.
