Roads Project Updates

We conduct regular routine inspections on our local network and investigate problems and requests reported by the community. The routine inspections are conducted by our road stewards who drive and walk the assigned inspection routes. The stewards identify, measure and record defects in accordance with our intervention levels. These defects are then recorded in our asset management system.  This provides a measure of the condition of each road, which can be used to establish our routine maintenance and capital work requirements. Through the collation of defect data, programs are then created with consideration of risk, road hierarchy and resources.

Sections of roads across the region will be resealed to improve skid resistance and waterproofing, and to extend the life of the underlying road surface.

Gravel roads across the region will be resheeted.

Work includes profiling, primer seal and asphalt and the program will be completed this financial year.

Roads damaged by Cyclone Jasper will be repaired including gravel resheeting, heavy and medium formation grading, patch repairs, and pothole repairs. Work is expected to start in late July and continue through to March 2026.
