Before you start

Please call 03 5272 4426 or 03 5272 5076 to request a pre-approval inspection. We will meet with you onsite to discuss your proposed work before you apply for a permit.

During the inspection we check that there is enough space to construct the crossing and ensure the crossing will not impact nearby services.

After the inspection we will provide written confirmation if your works can proceed. The confirmation email is required as part of the Vehicle Crossing Permit application.

4. Book a Pre-pour inspection

Once the vehicle crossing is boxed the contractor will need to book an inspection prior to pouring the concrete. This is to ensure that it has been constructed to our specifications and the correct materials have been used.

Call 03 5272 4426 or 03 5272 5076 to arrange an inspection. Please quote your Vehicle Crossing Permit Number and Planning Permit Number (if applicable) when booking.
