The Honorable S. M.errijield, M.L.A., Minister of Public Works, Department of Public Works, 1Vlelbourne, 0.2. SIR, In accordance "ith the requirements of Section 96 of the Country Roads Act 1928 (No. 3662), the Board has the honour to submit to you, for presentation to Parliament, a report of its proceedings for the year ended 30th June, 1952. FINANCE. The year 1951-52 was notable for a lamentable shortage of funds with which to deal with sharply rising costs and meet the urgent needs of the State's road system, and it is regrettable that, from circumstances quite beyond its control, it was necessary for the Board to considerably restrict its allocations of funds for works both under the supervision of municipal councils and under its own direct control. As a result of the financial stringency relating to road funds there is a progressive and serious deterioration of road pavements and bridges over the highway system of the State. The position is reaching a critical stage and unless a substantial increase in road funds is made available the extensive failures occurring along the State highways and main roads must eventually lead to a serious dislocation of road transport facilities. Lightly constructed pavements are breaking up because reconstruction cannot be undertaken and in addition many old sections of bituminous pavements have passed the end of their economic life. Transport conditions are thus rendered difficult with excessive cost in both road. maintenance and vehicle operation. (Plates Nos. l, 2, and 3.) Hundreds of weak old timber bridges must be replaced. Many of these have load limits with consequent restriction on transport and are too narrow for today's traffic. (Plate No. 4.) Load limitations on sections of important routes must remain because funds are not available to carry out the necessary strengthening work. Inability to proceed with an essential reconstruction programme must seriously increase the cost and magnitude of works in future years. As the financial position deteriorated during the year, works had to be closed down or eliminated from the original programme in order to keep expenditure within the limits of the Board's resources. As indicated in the 38th Annual Report, the total allocation by the Board for the financial year 1950-51 was the largest in the Board's history, and the total road expenditure of £5,362,023 also exceeded all previous figures. .Many of the councils, whilst not being able to actually complete the whole of their programmes, had entered into large commitments which had to be provided for in the new financial year, and, following the record allocation, it was not surprising that the total of commitments carried forward to the 1951--52 financial year reached the substantial amount of £2,641,189. This amount was a first charge upon the funds available for the new financial vear, and, as efforts to obtain additional funds for the Board had proved to be unavailing, it was inevitable that the allocations for the new financial year would need to be considerably reduced. 8 This restriction of fundt:~ for new worh was most severely felt in relation to unclassified roads, as it was found to be impossible to make an allocation for new works, whilst only limited amounts could be provided for the maintenance of such. roads. This was a considerable set-back to many municipal councils which had built up extensive direct labour organizations on the strength of the substantial allocation of prev!ous ti. an•;iaJ years. ln order to make the position clear to the municipalities generally, a specral statement prepared by the Board and covered by an explanatory letter by the .Minister of Public \V orks was circulated to all ,,mmcils throughout the State on the 11th January, 1952. 'fhis statement laid stress upon the following matters :- 1. The estimate(l amount available to the Poard for the financial year 1951-52 (inclusive of loan moneyR) was £l,S91,000 more than the previous year. 2. On the other hand, reserveR which had accumulated during the war years were now depleted, the balance at the 1st July, 1950 (£1,132,000), having shrunk to £17:3,000 at the 1st July, 1951, a reduction of £959,000. 3. The net increase in funds for 1951-52 was thus only £332,000, which was more than offset by increased purchases of plant, higher interest charges, &c., which absorbed approximately £600,000 more than in the previous year. 4. Applications for grants for all types of works on all classes of roads had increased from £11,567,492 in 1950-51 to £15,543,701 in 1951-52, an increase of 34 per cent., whereas the estimated receipts had .increased by only 4 per cent. over the receipts for the financial year 1950-51. The receipts from motor registration fees and fines and drivers' licence fees paid to the Country Roads Board Fund during the year totalled £4,186,906, an increase of £688,910 over the amount received during the corresponding financial year. Refunds and the cost of collection amounted to £3:32,944, making the net revenue £:3,853,~~62. Under the terms of the Cornrnonwealth Aid Roads Act 1950, which operates for five years from the 1st July, 1950, payment to the States of the proceeds of 6d. per gallon Customs duty on motor spirit imported into Australia and of 3ld. per gallon excise duty on motor spirit refined in Australia is divided among the States on the basis which has operated for many years, namely, in the proportion three-fifths as to population and t\vo-fifths as to area.

  • Less Black Stuff There
    Less black stuff there. AdBlue® is a fluid used in heavy-duty diesel engines that utilise a technology called Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) to help reduce the engine’s exhaust emissions of oxides of nitrogen. AdBlue® is the registered trademark for Aqueous Urea Solution or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF). AdBlue® is clear, non-toxic, non-explosive, non-flammable and, if stored and handled in the correct manner, is safe to handle and should not cause harm to the environment. HOW DOES ADBLUE® WORK? AdBlue® is stored in a separate tank on the truck and is sprayed in metered doses into the exhaust stream of the vehicle. AdBlue® reacts with the exhaust gases from the engine and helps to convert oxides of nitrogen emissions into harmless gas and water vapour. WHY WOULD I USE ADBLUE®? The SCR technology with AdBlue® is one technology adopted by truck manufacturers to help meet the latest European legislation on diesel engine emissions. If your vehicle is equipped with SCR technology your vehicle will require the use of Diesel Exhaust Fluid such as AdBlue® to be operational.

    LRRCSC - INQUIRY INTO VICROADS' MANAGEMENT OF COUNTRY ROADS SUBMISSION NO: 152 RECEIVED: 12 JAN 2018 Submission: Management of Country Roads Submittor: Jane Hildebrant Postal Address: Email: Mob.: 11 January 2017 Terms of Reference 1. The effectiveness of VicRoads in managing country roads; 2. The existing funding model and its lack of effectiveness for country Victoria; 3. The lack of consultation with regional communities and their subsequent lack of input into prioritising which roads are in dire need of repair; and 4. The option of dismantling VicRoads and creating a specific Country Roads organisation and separate Metropolitan Roads body. 1. The effectiveness of VicRoads in managing country roads VicRoads appears to lack a clear management plan for managing country roads. Talking to local drivers, the consensus is that roads’ maintenance is reactive and piecemeal and that vast sums of money appear to be being spent on works that are largely ineffective and therefore, a complete waste of money and time. This assessment was clearly articulated in the recent “Country Roads: Your Insights, Our Actions” report. I wholeheartedly concur with the findings of this report, viz.: “The desire for better links between regions, safer overtaking opportunities and investment in sealed shoulders were commonly raised, along with concerns about poor roadside drainage and pot‐holes… [as well as] greater transparency about what is happening on [our] roads” (p1). This report states, p16 (10/19 online) that: “The condition and maintenance of country roads was raised by many people throughout our engagement. Participants shared a need for VicRoads to “go beyond the reactive approach and ‘band‐aid’ solutions, such as patching or reducing speeds, to fix and maintain the country roads’’.
