Questions about Unsealed Road Maintenance

 

Unsealed roads Maintenance and Management have been issues that I have been at grips with for some eight years. At the start of my career as a Civil Engineer these were some of the questions that I had.....


Are there simple and practical ways to improve the way maintenance is completed on unsealed roads, so that I maximise the money that I have available?

 

How do I deal with unsealed road complaints that will make my job easier and less stressful when I get the question, "Why did we grade this road?" or "Why will this road not be graded?"

 

How do I work out for a network of unsealed roads the expenditure and resources required to meet certain service levels so that our organisation can see the impacts quickly at budget time?

 

Over those last eight years I have worked hands on with a number of local Councils in Queensland, Australian developing and refining simple and practical solutions to answer these questions.
