Before you begin any work on a City of Greater Bendigo controlled road reserve, you need a permit.
The road reserve is the public land beyond your property boundary, and includes roadside or nature strip, drains, verge, shoulders and roadway.
Information to include in your application
The following items are required to be lodged with the Works in the Road Reserve application:
- Detailed plan of works (plan can be either scaled or dimensioned)
- Traffic management plan (if works involve stopping or diverting traffic)
Dial Before You Dig
If you are planning to excavate, the Dial Before you Dig service puts you in touch with the relevant underground asset owners. They respond with advice as to the location of any underground pipes and cables, and safety advice for excavating near an underground plant.
