Sizing a Hewitt driveway for what parks on it
The City's 2021 financial report named Moonlight Park and Sunflower Ridge as new subdivisions with home lots in development, and the Census Bureau's 2020–2024 survey estimates count about 39% of Hewitt's housing units as built in 2000 or later, 54 of them in 2020 or later.
Thickness follows the heaviest vehicle. A 4-inch drive is generally enough for the family car or SUV, at 3,000 to 6,000 pounds, while a truck or big RV at 12,000 pounds or more may call for 5 or 6 inches. Allow at least 10 feet of width per vehicle, 12 preferred for a single drive, and a length of 22 to 24 feet per full-size pickup. The Illinois Ready Mixed Concrete Association keeps joints no more than 10 feet apart and requires a centerline joint on drives wider than 12 feet.
For a patterned finish, see stamped drives and walks; a panel that has only sunk may be a job for concrete leveling in Hewitt instead. See our other Hewitt concrete services for the rest.

Hewitt driveway questions
Does Hewitt require a permit for a new concrete driveway?
Hewitt charges $50 minimum, $0.02 per square foot, for its Flat Work Permit in the City's Master Fee Schedule for FY 2026-2027. No statement of what that permit covers turned up on the City's pages, so whether a same-footprint replacement needs one is a question for the Building Department before tear-out.
Can a driveway be widened instead of replaced?
Widening puts new concrete beside the old, so the joint between them matters: a felt or mastic expansion joint there helps avoid heaving and cracks. Expect a visible difference: fresh concrete can be hard to match in color to the existing slab.
Which way should a driveway slope?
Downhill to the street, away from the house and garage. The minimum pitch, credited to the Portland Cement Association, is ⅛ inch per foot.
