Dropped kerb

A dropped kerb is a lowered section of pavement that allows vehicles to safely and legally cross from the road onto a driveway. It provides smooth access over the kerbstones, helping to prevent damage to vehicles, pavements and underground services while improving safety for pedestrians and road users. In Northamptonshire, installing a dropped kerb requires local council approval and a formal application to the relevant highways authority. The work must be carried out by an accredited contractor who meets council standards and specifications. Liberty Driveways works closely with local councils to manage the application process and ensure all dropped kerb installations are fully compliant, professionally constructed and approved from start to finish.
