Road Management Plan
The Road Management Plan is a plan for road management in the Shire. The Plan outlines the Council’s road management responsibilities, lists the road assets and details the standards of service and maintenance for roads within the Shire. The plan was updated in late 2008 and following public consultation the amended Plan was adopted by Council in July 2009.

This Plan aims to:

• Reflect our commitment to providing a safe and efficient road network for use by all members of the public by identifying assets that the Council is responsible for
• Document its commitment to a level of service having regard to affordability, sustainability, community priorities, policies and strategies
• Provide a basis to ensure the Council has taken reasonable care in providing a safe road network for the community.

Please download the plan from the link below .

A copy of Council's Register of Public Roads are available for inspection during normal business hours at the Civic Centre, Civic Drive, Greensborough.
