Dropped kerbs

As Surrey County Council is the Highway Authority, you will need to make an application with Surrey County Council if you wish to lower the kerb outside your property.

As part of your application with Surrey County Council they will ask if planning permission is required from Runnymede Borough Council, you can ask us for this but we require your road classification, our reply can then be used as evidence as part of your Surrey County Council application.

Use Surrey County Council Highways interactive map to find out the classification of your road

  • Select the Road & Transport - Public Maintained roads mapping layer 
  • Find your house
  • Click the road colour to see the road classification
