What Stonnington requires

PermitVehicle Crossing Permit
Suburbs we coverSouth Yarra · Prahran · Windsor · Toorak · Armadale · Malvern · Malvern East · Glen Iris · Kooyong
Requirements
  • Permit required to construct, change, repair or remove a crossing under Stonnington's General Local Law; temporary crossing permits available for builder access.
  • The property owner arranges and pays for the work, and only suitably experienced, qualified contractors may build it.
  • Council inspects before and after the pour — the pre-pour inspection is booked ahead.
  • Design follows council's Vehicle Crossing Policy and standard drawing STD-401: one crossing per property, 3 m wide with splays, and no net loss of on-street parking.
  • Arterial roads and heritage/landscape overlay properties may need a planning permit first.
Council feesSee council's application pages — fees aren't published on the main permit page.
Worth knowingStonnington is fierce about street trees (clearance of 2 m or 10× trunk diameter, whichever is greater) and caps crossings at a third of your frontage. Leafy-street crossings here live or die on the site plan.
