A crossover is the continuation of a driveway from the property boundary to the street which provides access for vehicles from the road into a property.
Land owners are required to obtain written approval from the Town to either alter an existing crossover or construct a new crossover in accordance with the Town’s Crossover Policy and Specifications. Crossover Applications can take a minimum of 10 days to assess before approval is issued.
In accordance with Local Government Act 1995, maintenance of the existing crossover is the sole responsibility of the property owner to ensure it remains in a safe and trafficable condition once constructed. No contributions are available to repair or reconstruct crossovers.
