(5) How many interim road repairs are currently in place in the Ginninderra electorate, where are they located and when are they expected to be permanently repaired.
Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
1. Repairs to road pavements typically involve asphalt patching. Shorter timeframe repairs, such as to isolated potholes can be made using cold mix asphalt. More durable repairs to substantial pavement failures can be made using asphalt applied hot. These treatments are more complex and require planning of designs, materials, specialist equipment and other resourcing.
2. The cost of each pothole repair is approximately $60. The cost of hot asphalt patching varies significantly depending on the specific application, location and the size of the patch, typically ranging from $40-$100 per square metre.
3. In each set of circumstances officers seek to apply the treatment that is most appropriate in terms of timeframe, cost and durability. In some cases, a short timeframe response may be replaced by a more substantial treatment. The need for a subsequent treatment and its timing will vary depending on circumstances, including the performance of the initial treatment.
4. See answers 1. and 3. above.
5. The attached map shows the distribution of 59 sites in the Ginninderra electorate identified for inclusion in heavy patching (using asphalt applied hot) programs and not yet recorded as completed in TCCS’s Integrated Asset Management System. The timeframe for permanent treatments varies based on the required treatment and priority within the asset management system.
