Dropped kerb height is equivalent to pavement height

Reported via iOS in the Road Defect category anonymously at 16:02, Thu 10 April 2025

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7417614.

There are a number of dropped kerbs for driveways here which are all inappropriately high

In fact they are opposite a pavement which is lower than the level of the dropped kerbs (see height of kerb on opposite side of 215 warren road versus dropped kerb at 215 warren road and houses down to 205)

Something is required to be down to reduce this height

Either a tactical fix of asphalt on each driveway to reduce the impact of mounting the driveway (at kerb height) or strategically all driveways entrances lowered to road height

  • Can you lower this at 207 warren road as well please

    I can see the outline on some driveways but not all

    I have had historic issues with damaged suspension and believe this might be the leading cause

  • Hi

    It looks like a few weeks ago some pot holes were filled and as a result they mistakenly retarmaced in front of the drives of 211 and 213 which was marked for road raising to bring in line with drive. As a result when the contractors came to raise the kerb here, the contractors assumed it was already done as the lines were not visible. The droves here are still too high
