Cost sharing based on responsibilities within state-controlled roads

Queensland Department of Main Roads and the Local Government Association of Queensland Inc., for and on behalf of Queensland Local Government, have worked in partnership in formulating this agreement on cost sharing responsibilities for works on state-controlled roads. It recognises that, while local roads, towns and cities are managed by local government and state-controlled roads are managed by Main Roads, roads do not exist in isolation and must integrate smoothly and efficiently, and complement the surrounding environment. Therefore, this agreement is aimed at facilitating and providing for the needs of local government and Main Roads while at the same time enhancing the good operational relationship which already exists.

Policies on cost sharing on state-controlled roads have been in place for a considerable period. These past policies have now been jointly reviewed and the result of this work is formally presented in this agreement.
