FIX THE POTHOLES and improve road conditions: Many residents of the Mornington Peninsula have expressed their concerns about the conditions of our roads and in particular the pot holes. Our road system is partly owned by Shire and then the majority of the network is owned by VicRoads (State government). The Shire is aware of these issues and has scheduled works for repairs as soon as the weather is more appropriate to fix the potholes i.e. the hot mix asphalt is the best to use but wet conditions reduces its effectiveness. New techniques will be trialled by the Shire in future. In the meantime the State governments has released $45M funding towards road repairs so Council will advocate for our local roads owned by VicRoads to be repaired as soon as possible. Please report any major potholes that need repairing to the Shire customer service 1300 850 600 and if the section of the road belongs to VicRoads give them a call too on 13 11 70
