Consultation has concluded
We've updated our Road Management Plan (RMP).
The Road Management Plan (2025-2029) was updated and endorsed at the September 2025 Council Meeting.
Our RMP outlines how we manage the roads, kerbs, and footpaths under our control. Within the RMP, you will find information such as how often we undertake inspections, what a defect is, and how long we take to complete repairs.
The RMP sets the standard for how council will perform its inspection, maintenance and repair responsibilities for rural and urban roads covering:
Sealed and unsealed road surfaces,
Road pavement,
Footpaths,
Kerb and channel,
Drainage pits,
Bridges,
Regulatory, hazard and warning signage,
Guard rail and
Vegetation.
The RMP covers aspects such as:
The hierarchy of our road network and the level of service provided for each category of road,
The intervention level for responding to defects in the road network and the intervention times for repairing these. For example, setting out for the timeframes for repairing potholes based upon the road classification and the size (depth and diameter) of the pothole.
How Council manages infrastructure at the interface with other Local Government Areas, for example the maintenance of bridges and roads at shared boundaries.
How council will respond with emergency works, whereby works that result from emergency incidents to make our roads safe will be undertaken immediately.
Since the last plan was adopted, the Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV), in conjunction with its member Councils, has developed a Road Management Plan template, which it has recommended all Councils consider adopting. The Rural City of Wangaratta has used this template in preparing the revised RMP draft document.
The current Road Management plan has been reviewed for currency, with only minor changes made to the Roadside Vegetation Overhead clearance intervention times from the previous plan. The intervention timeframe for Link and Collector Roads has been improved from 12 months to 6 months.
Council's Road Register, the list of roads under council's authority is provided as a reference. Requests to add roads to this register can be made through council.
