Key build program
Project overview
Roads and Maritime Services has finalised a strategy for the sustainable conservation of heritage timber truss bridges following stakeholder and community involvement. Roads and Maritime Services Infrastructure Maintenance Program delivers economic benefits to the community through savings in vehicle operating costs through the provision of improved ride quality of pavements. This results in a reduction in fuel and oil consumption, vehicle maintenance, tyre wear and vehicle depreciation. Roads and Maritime Services has a number of key building programs underway.
