If you drive over the footway but do not have dropped kerb, you are breaking the law and enforcement action could be taken against you.
If you live in a controlled parking zone (CPZ) you must obtain a Dropped Kerb permit to be able to park over / across a dropped kerb outside your house, as long as you’re not blocking anyone else, such as wheelchair, pram users or motorist. You will not be permitted to park across any other dropped kerb.
If a vehicle parks illegally over your dropped kerb (outside your house), please call the Parking Customer Services Team on 0203 3074967 or email parking.enforcement@lbbd.gov.uk and give the full location details.
Please note that if your query is regarding a dropped kerb application of refusal, your query needs to be directed to the Highways Dropped Kerb team.
