Street naming and numbering

The council has a statutory duty to name streets and number properties in North Ayrshire. This is to promote effective location information for services like:

• delivery providers and the Royal Mail
• the emergency services
• infrastructure and utility services
• the Ayrshire Valuation Joint Board

Planning Services work with developers and our partners within the council to:

• select street names and numbering layouts for new developments
• renumber properties and streets where problems are identified
• inform organisations about new, or changes to, addresses

See our Street naming and numbering guidance document.
