With the launch of the Roads Prioritisation Program, community members have an opportunity to participate in six location-based surveys to give feedback that will assist in creating a safer road network.
Director of Infrastructure, John Dyer welcomes responses from the community,
"It is the residents of the Shire that have the local knowledge of their roads and the issues that affect the road networks, particularly in times of natural disasters," Mr Dyer said.
"This local knowledge, combined with a scientific approach using digital road traffic data from Transport for NSW (TfNSW) will give an holistic approach to long-term road asset management.
"Participation in the surveys will help us better understand, enabling us to plan and provide maintenance, upgrades or improved roads in priority order".
To assist council in prioritising and allocating resources to the road network, you can give your feedback on the roads you use most regularly. Residents may complete any location-based survey where they drive or travel regularly.
