The dropped crossing procedure is part of the council's approach to managing illegal parking on verges, with officers sending letters to residents or businesses. Councillor Barry Muggleston, Cabinet Member for Regeneration, explained this process in March 2026.

No further developments or upcoming discussions regarding the dropped crossing procedure have been reported since Havering Council began its review of grass verge parking enforcement in March 2026. The procedure itself relates to creating or modifying dropped kerbs for vehicle access.
