If you are considering modifying your entrance or driveway consider the following:
The Municipality regulates the construction of driveway entrances onto Municipal roads. We ensure that entrances are installed according to municipal standards in appropriate locations and provide for safe and efficient road operation.
Property owners must apply to the Engineering Services Department for an entrance when:
Approval from the Municipality is required.
An entrance application is also used in the event that a property owner is requesting a curb cut (driveway widening) in the urban area.
If you need an entrance permit, mark the location of the requested entrance/curb cut in the field and then visit the Building Services Division on the third floor of the Municipal Administrative Centre. Due to the department's numbering system and signature requirements, applications are not available online.
A $75 inspection fee will apply. We will inspect the location, and will advise the applicant of the final cost of the work to be done by the Municipality. The applicant must pay all costs prior to the installation of any entrances or curb cuts.
Property owners requesting a road entrance off a Regional road must apply to the Region of Durham.
