Navigating Planning Permission & Regulations
Understanding local highways and council guidelines prevents costly issues during driveway or fencing projects. Here is what you need to know:
SUDS Permeability
Driveways over 5 square metres using permeable materials (like resin-bound or permeable block paving) do not require planning permission.
Dropped Kerbs
Crossing a footway or verge to reach your new driveway requires a dropped kerb licence from Hampshire or Berkshire Council highways authorities.
Fence Height Rules
Fences adjacent to a public highway are generally limited to 1 metre in height without planning permission, and 2 metres in rear boundaries.
