The Challenge
Due to unprecedented flooding and the sheer size of Western Downs Regional Council's road network (equated to the size of Tasmania), Council required additional resources not only to undertake road inspections but also to prepare and submit the QRA submission on behalf of Council.
The Solution
Proterra Group were engaged by Council to undertake a hold of road network flood damage assessment over three successive flood events from November 2021 to May 2022. This work involved driving 10,200 km of road network within the Western Downs Region multiple times. Proterra Group project team consisted of a Project Manager, a Submissions Administrator and three Road Inspectors. These personnel lived and worked within the region and during the 9 months of inspections contributed approximately $109,000 to suppliers within the region.
