What is a DCC Vehicle Crossing?

A vehicle crossing (also called a driveway crossover) is the section of driveway that connects your property to the road — from the kerb to your boundary line. The Dunedin City Council (DCC) requires a permit for all new crossings, replacements, or modifications to ensure compliance with safety, drainage, and road corridor standards.

Our team manages the full process — from DCC permit application and design approval through to construction, inspection, and final reinstatement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a DCC permit for a new driveway crossing?

Yes. Any new or altered vehicle crossing requires a permit from the Dunedin City Council to ensure safety and compliance with local road corridor standards.

How long does DCC approval take?

Usually around 10–15 working days depending on the application and DCC's workload. We manage the process and keep you informed throughout.

Can you handle drainage or stormwater relocations?

Yes, we are experienced in identifying and relocating stormwater or service lines in coordination with DCC and utility providers.

What's the difference between residential and heavy-duty crossings?

Heavy-duty crossings are designed for commercial or high-load access points, built to higher structural and thickness specifications per DCC requirements.
