Crossovers
Information on crossovers requirements in the City.
What is a crossover?
A crossover or private crossing is located between the road edge and the property line.
Crossovers are primarily constructed to:
Allow access to your property
Help to reduce erosion of the verge area
Provide pedestrians with a safer area to walk
A properly constructed crossover will also enhance the streetscape and property value.
Location of crossovers
The location of the crossover must be clearly located on your building plan and must be constructed in accordance with the City’s crossover specifications as detailed below.
Council contribution
The City may contribute 50% (to a maximum amount of $400) towards the construction of an approved crossover, where this meets the requirements detailed in Council's Crossover Policy
