Sondernutzung von Straßen - Änderung einer Gehwegüberfahrt beantragen

If your property driveway is a sidewalk crossing, you can modify it by request.

For example, by making a curb drop.

This is to improve the street entrance and street exit at the property.

Sidewalk crossings, or also called property driveways or curb drops, are used to provide easy vehicle access to a property from the street.

If you are planning such a project that requires lowering the curb, you will need a sidewalk crossing permit.

Existing sidewalk crossings can also be modified.

You can apply to modify a sidewalk crossing.

Property driveways require a different design or paving than the sidewalk. That is why these measures must be approved by the responsible body.

It does not matter whether the work involves the construction or modification of a sidewalk crossing.

As a rule, the work in the public road space is commissioned by the city. In exceptional cases, you as the applicant may commission the work yourself from an approved specialist company.

You yourself are the owner of the property.

Alternatively, you have a power of attorney from the property owner.

If you are allowed to carry out the construction yourself, the company commissioned must be an approved company.

The height and visual continuity of the sidewalk must be maintained.

There must be no interruptions to the sidewalk as a result of the measure.

In addition to the administrative fee, there are production costs for the modification of the sidewalk crossing.

The fee and production costs depend on the size and nature of the sidewalk crossing.

For example, there may also be costs for tree replacement plantings or light pole relocations.

Both cost components must be borne by the person making the request.

As soon as the application has been submitted, it will be checked whether there are any reasons against the execution of the sidewalk crossing.

After your application has been reviewed, you will receive a notice of approval or denial.

The processing time distinguishes application processing and change of sidewalk crossing.

The application processing is immediate.

The change of the sidewalk crossing by the competent body: At least 3 months.
