Step 5.What happens next?

We will process your application within 5 business days. Building work (including excavation, boxing and reinforcement) must not commence until your permit has been issued. Your permit will include details on the crossing type you are able to construct.

Once you receive your permit, you can advise your concreter to 'box up' the crossing. You will need to request a pre-pour inspection one day prior to pouring the concrete. Please ensure the site is fully prepared. A Council Officer will inspect the site and if approved, the concrete can be poured.

You will need to notify us when works are complete so that a Council Officer can inspect the site to ensure works have been completed to a satisfactory standard.
