The builder is going to do it for us, just wanted to know if the $1200 they were charging us for doing the crossover in pavers was reasonable. Can't believe you don't have foot paths on both sides of the street over in Perth... Currently Building in Bayside (Brighton East) Re: Crossovers 13Oct 23, 2007 2:43 pm vlad,
try coming out to the new burbs.... 1 pathway down 1 side if you are lucky!! They take up valuable building space... Re: Crossovers 14Oct 23, 2007 8:09 pm who neeeds to walk on both sides of the street anyway Building again . . with Redink Pre-start 04/12 Keys - 03/13 Finishing off. . .

Is it from where a footpath would be, or is it the kerb?
Ray. Second Time 'Round Re: Crossovers 16Oct 23, 2007 8:31 pm I couldn't work out what the crossover was until I read a few of the replies - very odd! didn't even imagine that councils/estates would sting people for what would be considered common property! I guess the benefit would be being able to choose which side your driveway is on... If we want to change ours I guess we would have to pay for a whole new "crossover"!!

If we want to change ours I guess we would have to pay for a whole new "crossover"!! I guess so, seems unfair that you don't get to choose where you want you driveway on your own property but hey at the end of the day whats $800 (after rebate) in the grand scheme of the cost of the house.
