Kerb damage is a serious problem on the majority of housebuilding sites. Many projects allow for the cost of replacing anything from 80% to 100% of the kerbs on site before completion of a housing estate. The need to obtain the best ROI in the shortest time tends to encourage the early establishment of street-scene, which makes kerbs more vulnerable to damage from ongoing site traffic. However, the process of removing, replacing, and disposing of damaged kerbs before highway adoption is both expensive and frustrating!
