Draft Policy

Road Infrastructure Construction Materials

Road Infrastructure materials are an important part of providing a safe environment for all users of roads. It is also one of several elements that would form an important part of any future streetscape strategy.

The policy seeks to:

Conserve and repair the traditional street fabric of Yarra using historic and aesthetically pleasing materials, sympathetic to the character of the municipality while also meeting technical, access safety and health requirements.

Serve as a guide for developers, consultants, Council and residents who may wish to alter the existing infrastructure. Meet the Disability Discrimination Act 1992, Yarra Planning Scheme, Australian Standards AS1428 (Design for Access and Mobility) and other relevant standards with respect to providing safe access to all pedestrians including the disabled, the elderly, cyclists and other road users. Comments are welcome and should be made in writing by Friday 30 January 2004. Road infrastructure construction materials draft policy
