A vehicle crossing – commonly known as a crossover – provides access to your property between the property line and road edge. You need our permission to construct, reconstruct, modify, remove, or relocate a crossing to your property.
- See the Engineering Standard Drawings page for Vehicle Crossing Drawings.
- Read the Requirements for Construction or Alteration to a Vehicle Crossing.
Apply for a Vehicle Crossing
You need to submit plans showing proposed works with your application. Plans must show the location of the nature strip, trees, and all services.
Prior to making an application for a vehicle crossing, please note that if a tree is located on the naturestrip within the area of the proposed vehicle crossing and requires removal, there will be additional fees for the tree replacement as per the Brimbank Tree Policy.
This cost will be noted on your approval letter once your application is assessed and payable prior to Consent being issued for the vehicle crossing. Please note this cost does not include the removal of the tree which is the responsibility of the applicant via an approved Council authorised contractor.
If you have queries in relation to the Brimbank Tree Policy, please discuss this with Parks Services on 9249 4000.
Submit your application with a contractor’s Public Liability Certificate of Currency that contains:
- Contractor’s name and address
- Name of contractor’s insurance company
- Policy number
- Expiry date
- Amount covered under policy (min. $10,000,000).
There's a non-refundable application fee of $100. It must be paid when you lodge your application.
