An unprecedented six months of extreme wet weather in 2022, on top of major storm events in 2020 and 2021, have significantly impacted Wollondilly’s 870km road network. Day after day Council crews and contractors continue to work tirelessly to repair the damage, only for the waterlogged soil and ongoing rain to undo their efforts.
The ongoing damage caused to the roads and the fact that the organisation has been in emergency road repair mode since the beginning of 2022 was highlighted at Tuesda…

Wollondilly Council is strongly advocating for the NSW State Government to review and reclassify 116km of its roads as state roads, with Nathaniel Smith MP working closely with Council to help make it happen.
Mayor Robert Khan said, “Council is investing more than ever before to fix our 870km road network, with a big focus on our major roads.”
“But many of these heavily used roads really should be managed by the NSW Government, like they are for other Council areas all over the state, giving u…
Wollondilly Council has renewed its calls for the NSW Government to review and reclassify key regional roads as State roads, so it takes over management of these busy main roads and enables Council’s limited funds to be focussed on local road repairs.
Council is investing more money, resources and time than ever before to fix the Shire’s 870km road network following six months of wet weather, storms and flooding. Unfortunately, a large portion of Council’s limited roads budget is continuing to…

In light of the recent storm event, we are accelerating $4m of road reconstructions in the next 4 months with an additional $1.2m for immediate maintenance and repair. Some roads we are focusing on include Finns Ro…
