Separate Lewes street and building consent

For a Lewes loading position on the public road, check East Sussex's dispensation and suspension guidance. Identify the exact bay or restriction before asking which process applies.

Permission to use a private entrance remains a matter for its owner or manager. Keep both confirmations with the move details and agree an alternative if the intended roadside position cannot be secured.

Confirm the arrangement before relying on it

  1. Identify the exact loading location, restriction, date and vehicle requirements.
  2. Ask the responsible authority which application is appropriate and check its current notice and charges.
  3. Keep the confirmation and any conditions available; arrange a lawful alternative if permission is not granted.

An application is not an approval. Private land, building entrances and lift reservations need agreement with the responsible owner or manager, separately from street permission.

Check the local arrangements

For the Lewes address, use Lewes parking reference as a starting point for the current street requirements. Confirm that the guidance covers the actual location and proposed use; it does not grant private-building access.
