If you want to park on a new or existing driveway, you will need a dropped kerb where the pavement meets the road. Without one, driving over the kerb onto the footpath is an offence. In Bristol, dropped kerb applications are made to the local council and require a highway officer inspection before approval.

Drop Kerbs FAQs for Patchway Homeowners
How long does a dropped kerb application take?
Bristol City Council typically takes 6–12 weeks to process an application. We advise applying well in advance of your driveway installation.
Can you be refused a dropped kerb?
Yes — applications can be refused on safety grounds near junctions, crossings, or bus stops. We will advise on feasibility before applying.
Do I need a dropped kerb if I already have a crossing?
If there is already a legal crossing point, you may not need a new application. We can check this during our site visit.
