Yarra Ranges Shire Council (Council) is the custodian of an extensive range of community assets that it provides to facilitate delivery of its services to the community. This includes the roads for which it has responsibility for under the Road Management Act 2004.
The Council’s “Register of Public Roads” (Register) provides details of each of the roads the Council is the co-ordinating road authority for and which have been considered by the Council to be required for general public use. The Register is not an “incorporated document” in this Road Management Plan.
This Road Management Plan has been developed to assist Council in the management of Council’s public municipal road system, taking into consideration the important links provided by the State road network.
The Road Management Plan is a Council document that is used to assist the Council with the inspection, maintenance and repair of its public road network. In preparing and updating the Road Management Plan, Council has considered the needs of the community and the economic, social and environmental issues affecting the Council and the road users alike.
The Road Management Plan has determined the "levels of service" that meet the community's "reasonable" expectations of "day to day" maintenance and ongoing asset performance.
The Road Management Plan is a dynamic document and is subject to continuous improvement and review. Any queries or comments in relation to this Road Management Plan should be directed to:
