Concrete driveways in Lubbock
Lubbock code sets a 4-inch minimum for concrete driveways and requires drives to follow the city's Standard Details plates; many local crews pour 5 to 6 inches with rebar for trucks and trailers. Alley-loaded garages are common in older neighborhoods, and the approach from the curb is right-of-way work that needs a city permit.
