​

​​​The Canterbury-Bankstown road network is our biggest asset here at Council and its management is aimed at providing high levels of safety and driving comfort, as well as the cost-effective use of available road funding.

Increases in traffic volumes and traffic loads, as well the effects of our harsh environment, means that all road pavements are in a continual state of deterioration requiring regular inspection, condition monitoring, structural testing and an appropriate management regime.

We are committed to a systematic asset management approach ensuring that the maximum life is achieved for each road pavement.

The maintenance of the road network covers activities from pothole patching and crack filling to replacement of isolated pavement failures and major project work incorporating road resurfacing and rehabilitation.

Major projects are included in the annual capital works program.

In addition, as well as a routine maintenance program, other road related works include footpath reconstruction, new footpath construction plus traffic facilities (roundabouts, pedestrian refuges, etc.) and road drainage works.

The maintenance of signs and line marking is an ongoing activity to ensure safe road conditions for all road users, and changes to regulatory traffic signs and lines requires formal approval.  ​
