LEEDS CITY COUNCIL APPLICATION

Apply for your Pudsey dropped kerb first.

The first step is the council’s vehicle-crossing application and site inspection. Initial approval is followed by the contractor’s Section 171 licence application. We can help you understand the process; approval is the council’s decision.

Apply for dropped kerb permission

Opens the Leeds City Council form in a new tab. For driveway access, request a vehicular crossing site inspection. Read the council’s guidance and current fees before applying.

Planning a new driveway entrance in Pudsey?

If you are turning part of your Pudsey frontage into parking, the driveway and the crossing over the pavement need to be planned together. A new surface inside your boundary does not itself give permission to drive across the public footway.

Heritage is based in Pudsey. We can look at the proposed entrance alongside your tarmac or block paving quote, checking the parking space inside the boundary, the pavement crossing and the route to your front door.

For homes around Pudsey, including Fulneck and Swinnow, give us the full address rather than just the postcode so we can assess the actual entrance.

Check the space before committing to a new driveway.

Leeds City Council’s guidance requires at least five metres between the boundary and the property for the parking area. We can help you understand the measurements, but the council decides whether the crossing is suitable. Send a wide photograph showing the house, boundary and pavement as well as your Pudsey address.

The quote depends on crossing width, pavement construction, excavation, reinstatement and any obstructions. Council inspection and licence fees are separate from construction costs unless expressly included in your quote. We explain the scope and any known additional work before you decide.

Pudsey dropped kerbs: your questions.

Can you install a Pudsey driveway and dropped kerb together?

We can plan and quote for both. Work on the highway is arranged only after the initial crossing approval, Section 171 licence and any other required permissions are in place.

Can you handle the Section 171 application?

Yes. After initial vehicle-crossing approval, we can prepare and submit the contractor application, provide our relevant street works and insurance documents, and liaise with Leeds City Council.

Does sending the application mean permission is granted?

No. The council assesses the proposal and may ask for further information or permissions. Wait for the required approvals before arranging highway work.
