vehicle crossings (VX)
Thinking of adding or altering a dropped kerb (vehicle crossing) so you can park on your driveway? You'll need consent from your local authority's highways department or, in some areas, the county council's highways department.
You may also need planning permission if:
The property is a flat, maisonette, HMO or business
The property is on a classified road
It forms part of a larger development that needs planning permission
The property is in a conservation area or an Article 4 Direction area
The property is a listed building
A boundary wall over 1 metre high is to be altered
A tree protected by a Tree Preservation Order is to be removed
