Unsealed roads upgrade plan

Council adopted the Sunshine Coast Council Unsealed Roads Upgrade Plan 2015-2035 on 28 February 2015.

he Sunshine Coast Council Unsealed Roads Upgrade Plan 2015-2035 (PDF, 3381KB) sets out the strategic planning for the upgrading of the unsealed road network and supports the Sunshine Coast Council Sustainable Transport Strategy 2011-2031.

Overview

View the Sunshine Coast Council Unsealed Roads Upgrade Plan 2015-2035 (PDF, 3381KB).

The community’s expectations regarding council’s road network are increasing.

Unsealed roads are often seen as unacceptable, due to concerns such as dust nuisance, corrugations, loose material, environmental issues and safety. There is also a perception that unsealed roads are more expensive to maintain as the surface needs regular ongoing maintenance.

The plan recognises these expectations and provides a process for determining the highest priority unsealed roads for upgrading.

Council will review the priority list of unsealed roads and the indicative program annually.

Background

Council recognises its responsibility to provide a road network which supports the sustainable and safe transport vision of the community.

In accordance with that responsibility, council needs to plan and manage the development of the road network, understanding the communities concerns and recognising the constraints and opportunities in meeting that vision.

The plan outlines some of the challenges and opportunities in upgrading the unsealed road component of the overall road network across the region which council is managing to progressively improve its road network.
