Common Questions

A property is allocated a street identification number for every 20 metres of land frontage to a roadway.  

If your property frontage measures more than 20 metres, it will be allocated two (or more) street identification numbers.  

While your official address will include the full range of numbers, you may display any of the street numbers in your range at the front of the property. 

An example is if your property was 2-10 Smith Way, you could display 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 at the front of your property.
