All domestic vehicle crossing (dropped kerb) requests must be made to the council's highway operations team.
This is to ensure that they are properly constructed.
The team deals with the provision of estimates and receives payments before the work is carried out.
Existing properties
If you wish to apply to have a dropped crossing (or dropped kerb) to your property then please contact us in one of the following ways:
Telephone: 01724 296686/7
Email: highway.maintenance@northlincs.gov.uk.
or write to:

You can get an authorised approved contractor to construct the crossing. But the highway operations team must issue a licence first. Conditions apply to the licence.
Planning permission will be required for an access from a classified road.
If you live in a housing association property you need to get permission from your landlord.
New properties or new developments
If your request is regarding the provision of an access for new properties or development adjacent to the highway, contact Tim Sowerbutts (Team Manager - Highway Development Services Team):
