You can report a problem with a road (including bridges, potholes, blocked drains, abandoned vehicles and street lighting, amongst other things) online.
You need to have our permission to drop a kerb to your property. We charge an application fee of £76.50. Further details on requirements are included in the vehicle crossing/dropped kerb application form and vehicle crossing policy.
If you want to conduct roadworks, you will need to apply for permission from us.
