The existing town road stormwater system cannot handle 1 in 1 year flows, causing the roads to become flooded and properties to be inundated with water.Remove existing pipework and replace with an increased diameter pipe and new pits that will handle the water flows
Inadequate storm water drainageStage 1 works - Storm water and drainage improvements by means of the installation of 450 mm diameter reinforced concrete pipe and associated drainage structures from pit B8 to pit B16 (inclusive) with the relocation of existing buried services, as required, to improve the Crescent amenities
Inadequate storm water drainageUndertake storm water and drainage improvements by means of reconstructing the Avenue at a lower level, reinstating the two coat 14mm bitumen chip seal, installation of kerb and channel, and installation of 600 mm diameter reinforced concrete pipe and associated drainage structures to improve the Avenue amenities
Road has failures and isolated cracks in different sections. It has been patched in several locations during past years.Repair failed sections and reseal the whole road with 30mm thick asphalt - 7mm mix (AC7). Some sections of kerb will require replacement.Total cost of proposed project is $354,380
Existing road traverses and winds through sandhill country, prone to sand drifts and inundation; narrow depressed formation/geometry with limited forward and horizontal sight distances.Reconstruct, widen and gravel sheet existing pavement; clear, form and gravel sheet new alignments through sandhills. Improve sight distances, install drainage and advisory signage for crests and curves. Road width 10m, total length of works 10km.
Very low sections of road prone to severe corrugation, inundation and scouring/washouts after rain due to water flow velocity. This is dangerous for light vehicles and often renders road impassable to heavy traffic.Reconstruct road to improve formation and vertical geometry, carry out laterite gravel sheeting; install additional drainage, levee banks and causeways. Road width 10m, total length of works 20.7km.Total cost of proposed project is $700,000
Surface rutting, stripping and damage to edge break due to heavy vehicles entering the power stationTo undertake an asphalt overlay over the road surface in the turning areas of the heavy vehicles to preserve asset.Total cost of proposed project is $76,661
Potholes and stripping throughout surfacePartial Reconstruction of road surface
Extensive flood damage occurs after periods of heavy rainfall, with scouring and washouts of running surface and fast-flowing small creeks rendering road dangerous to all forms of traffic.Raise vertical alignment and formation with water-bound compacted gravel sheeting in preparation for sealing; improve drainage and install levee banks, box out and construct two rock-fill causeways. Cut down steep banks of creeks to reduce water flow velocity.Total cost of proposed project is $750,000
