Roads & Water
Roads
Council has the direct responsibility for the provision of its road and stormwater drainage network. The prime objective being to provide these services at a standard acceptable to the community in the most efficient and cost effective manner. Not all roads in the region however, are the responsibility of Council. The Department of Main Roads also has responsibility of a number of roads which pass through the region.
Council acknowledges that one of the prime considerations in this regard is determining the balance between service provisions by contract as against a day labour workforce. Being a local authority with a large rural road component in its road network, Council must maintain a sufficient day labour workforce to adequately maintain roads on a day to day basis and also deal with disaster situations caused by extreme drought, flooding or cyclone.
