Building Standards
Other Services
Street Names, Numbers and Name Plates
The Building Standards Service is responsible for naming streets and numbering properties
in South Ayrshire. Streets are named and buildings are allocated numbers when they
are first built and then from time to time, to overcome practical difficulties or
to accommodate new development, changes have to be made. Using this section you
can report problems and requests for Street Names, Numbers and Name plates.
Disability Issues
The Building Regulations ensure that certain new and extended buildings used for
specified purposes are accessible, have suitable toilets and satisfactory means
of escape for people with disabilities.
