Unsealed roads that are the responsibility of Knox City Council are generally maintained to a level of service outlined in Council's Road Management Plan. Some key activities from that Plan are summarised below. For more information, refer to Council's Road Management Plan page.
The maintenance of vehicle crossings is an owner responsibility.
Note: Intervention level is known as the trigger point at which Council will undertake maintenance.
Upgrade or improvement works (i.e. road construction or sealing) along unsealed roads would be undertaken by Knox City Council preparing a Contributory Scheme through the application of the Special Rates and Charges Policy. The scheme would involve landowners contributing for the cost of works. All those properties which are deemed to derive a special benefit from the works will be included in the scheme.
