WET GRAVEL ROADS Heavy Vehicles
The Shire would like to advise all land owners that they have an obligation to
the Shire to abide by the law regarding the use of gravel roads in wet weather.
There is to be no access to gravel roads when it is visibly wet. Those who are
found to breach these laws, will be liable for prosecution by MRWA under the
heavy vehicle regulations.
The costs associated with repairing damages roads are quite significant! If this
practice continues, Council will need to consider increasing rates to cover repair
costs.
The Shire is also looking at having a text type system that will alert owners and
contractors of closed roads within the Shire of Victoria Plains.
Calingiri & Bolgart Tips will now be
under new Management through
contractors, starting from the 16th
August 2017. Please be courteous to
these new operators.
The Shire Office would
like to make all
Community Residents
aware there is a fee on all
future Credit Card
Payments
(Not Debit Cards) at the
rate of 1.47% on all future
Transactions.
