In accordance with Section 54 (5) of the Road Management Act 2004, Hindmarsh Shire Council gives notice that it has completed a review of its Road Management Plan. Following a 4-week period of public consultation, in which submissions were received, Council formally adopted the revised Road Management Plan 2025-2029 at its meeting on Wednesday 23 July 2025.
Notable changes to the Plan include:
- Clearly define footpath hierarchy
- All township roads inspected annually. This is changed from some township roads being inspected once every two years.
- Most rural roads inspected in a yearly cycle except for category 6R roads that are inspected on a 24-month cycle. This is changed from category 4R, 5R and 6S roads being inspected on 24-month cycle and 6R on 36-month cycle.
- Clearly defined defect intervention levels and response timeframes for various road types.
- Clearly defined defect intervention levels and response timeframes for footpaths.
- Inclusion of roadside vegetation – overhead clearance in the defect list.
