OVERVIEW

This report is for Transport and Drainage activities during the period 1 December 2018 - 31 January 2019. Significant items in this period include:

There were no LTI’s during the month of March 2019.

Grading Teams are continuing to undertake programmed grading and gravelling works including the remaining NDRRA Restoration Works associated with TC Debbie. However, wet weather has continued to disrupt the works Program causing delays.

Special Open Drainage Maintenance has commenced with reshaping and de-silting work completed at Zamia Street Drain, and desilting at Willman’s Road Drain. Planned works are scheduled for Cabbage Tree/Aspley Way Drain and Bridge Road Drain wall instability repairs.

The geotechnical site investigation and engineering surveys of the Dalrymple Road landslips have been completed. The draft geotechnical report detailing the cause and extent of the landslips and restoration options has been completed and has been reviewed. The final report will form the basis of the Restoration Funding Submission to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority.

The Midge Point Sand Nourishment Project commenced in late February 2019 and is approximately 55% complete. The revegetation and fencing will be undertaken during April 2019.

The Lamberts Beach Sand Nourishment Project commenced in mid-February 2019 and is approximately 60% complete. The revegetation and fencing will be undertaken from April 2019 to May 2019 as each section of the sand nourishment is completed.

Mainly savings against Wages & Plant Hire offset by $3K increase in discounts allowed.

Income $397K less which is comprised of $175K timing difference and $222K of RMPC income not received (to March Budget review (MBR)). Wages is $186K less than budget to be offset by overspend against NDDRA. Materials & Services including Internal Transfers are $1121K less than budget mainly due to $222K expenses to MBR to offset income from RMPC, $121K timing differences and $780K Internal Plant Hire offset by overspends in NDDRA.

Income $15K more than budget (External enquiries and Traffic Management Plans $10K, Traffic Counters sold $5K). Wages is $144K less than budget of which $48K included in MBR. Materials & Services including Internal Transfers is $215K less than budget mainly due to timing differences.

3.1 Road and Drainage Maintenance Activities

The following chart details maintenance activities completed during the period as recorded in our Maintenance Management System, DeltaS, in comparison with the monthly average.

A high volume of maintenance activities has been delivered in response to client requests and defects identified during inspections.

3.2 Unsealed Road Maintenance Activities

Grading Teams are continuing to undertake programmed grading and gravelling works including the remaining NDRRA Restoration Works associated with TC Debbie. However, wet weather has continued to disrupt the Works Program causing delays. Also, emergent works associated with the declared Monsoon Trough event are being undertaken by Grading and Minor Works Crews.

An additional internal crew has been mobilised to undertake unsealed roads work in the Southern area; eight crews are now undertaking grading and gravelling works.

3.3 Open Drainage Maintenance

Special Open Drainage Maintenance has re-commenced with works on both Zamia Street Drain and Wallman's Road Drain completed. Works are planned on Bridge Road Drain and Cabbage Tree/Apsley Way Drain to undertake scour repairs and de-silting.

The Open Drains Crews are working extra hours to address the backlog of mowing and vegetation control as a result of delays associated with the wet weather.

3.4 Bridge Management

The Bridge Crew and Technical Officer are scheduled to attend a 3-day intensive Timber Bridge Maintenance and Restoration Training Course, being delivered by an external consultant, to upskill and increase knowledge and capability.

3.5 Cyclone Debbie and NQ & FNQ Monsoon Trough Works

Cyclone Debbie - Road Works (Category B & D)

Repairs to landslips on Chelmans Road and Dalrymple Road are progressing with completion due at the end of April 2019.

Grading and gravelling of the damaged sections of the Unsealed Road Network was undertaken in February 2019 with approximately 90% of the works completed to date. These works are being undertaken by day labour and contractor grading crews in conjunction with normal maintenance and Works for Queensland works. Other restoration works are progressing. All restoration works will be completed by mid-June 2019.

The construction of the Clews Road Floodway has been halted by ongoing high creek flows. It is planned to recommence work mid-April 2019. The associated fish ladder will be built in May 2019 when the creek flows are low.

Cyclone Debbie - Beach Restoration (Category D & Resilience)

The Midge Point Sand Nourishment Project commenced in late February 2019 and is approximately 55% complete. The revegetation and fencing will be undertaken during April 2019.

The Lamberts Beach Sand Nourishment Project commenced in mid-February 2019 and is approximately 60% complete. The revegetation and fencing will be undertaken from April 2019 to May 2019 as each section of the sand nourishment is completed.

The detailed design of the St Helens Beach Groyne Project ($0.24M) and the necessary Permit Application have been prepared. The design has been reviewed and is being finalised. Once the design is finalised the Prescribed Tidal Works Permit will be lodged. It is anticipated that works will be undertaken in June/July 2019.

NQ & FNQ Monsoon Trough – Road Restoration Works

Emergency repair works are being undertaken as necessary on damaged sections of the road network. These works need to be completed in the first 90 days following the event.

The geotechnical site investigation and engineering surveys of the Dalrymple Road landslips have been completed. The draft geotechnical report detailing the cause and extent of the landslips and restoration options has been completed and has been reviewed. The final report will form the basis of the Restoration Funding Submission to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority.

A preliminary design for the reconstruction of the Boundary Creek Causeway is being prepared. The design will need to address fish passage requirements as the creek is a major impact waterway and it will need a Development Application for a Waterway Barrier Permit. Once the preliminary design is finalised the Restoration Funding Submission will be lodged.

4.1 Requests for Maintenance Work

Results of Customer Survey (January / February 2019)

Representative Comments Trends A great crew, respectful and very courteous No one replied back to tell me they will send someone out

to fix it. Council staff attended to maintenance within 48 hours A nice neat finish just a patch, it will come up again in the next big storm Not started, let alone completed. The corrected sign is as good as new. I was surprised how

quickly the job was completed because of the nature of the repair I thought it would have taken longer.

If all Council employees are as competent, efficient and friendly as this crew, my rates are being well spent

Excellent. Was 4.45pm when I made the initial call. The lady was helpful and not fazed about getting the information. Was easy and fast considering the time of day and the weather situation.

Timely.
