Road Management Plan

Our Road Management Plan helps us manage our road infrastructure assets including:

• road pavements
• sealed surfaces
• kerb and channel
• pathways (footpaths, bicycle paths and shared footways)
• bridges
• major culverts

The plan – which was adopted in June 2021, after a period of public consultation - describes a hierarchy of importance for Council roads, based on traffic volume and function:

• Link roads - generally have the highest traffic volume and link other roads to arterial roads.
• Collector roads - channel traffic to link roads from local access streets.
• Access roads - provide the direct access required for residential, commercial, industrial and farming properties where traffic volumes are relatively lower than link and collector roads, and direct property access is the main function of the road.
