A dropped kerb is a lowered kerb to allow vehicles to access driveways.
Before you complete the form, please read the following:
Please note: Planning permission is required for vehicle crossings on classified roads and this must be obtained before the application process starts.
Council tenants must also contact their relevant estates manager for written permission before proceeding with an application.
If there is a Service box (BT, Virgin etc) in the area where you require a dropped kerb, this will add an estimated £6,000 to your overall cost. This cost is determined by the service provider and not Wigan Council. If you are not willing to fund this extra cost on top of your vehicle crossing price then please do not apply.
How long will it take?
We will contact you within twenty working days of the receipt of your application to tell you if it has been approved, refused or if planning permission is required.
If your application is approved we will request a deposit and will make every effort to construct the crossing within ten weeks of the receipt of that deposit.
