Vehicle access markings (dog-bones, keep clear)
These are white lines installed on the carriageway surface by local authorities. The markings are sometimes employed to identify access to properties. Typically, these markings are observed adjacent dropped kerbs and they are an indication to other highway users of the kerb-space that should not be obstructed by vehicles or other items that would prevent or restrict access.
For the borough of Dartford, Kent Police is the authority responsible for enforcing against obstruction of the highway and dropped kerb accesses.
Vehicle access markings may be installed at a cost of £40.00 if approved by a highways engineer following a site survey and technical appraisal.
