The Whitsunday Region covers 24,000 km2 and has a road network of over 1790 km – that’s as far as driving from the Whitsundays to Sydney!
This extensive network is made up of 580km of sealed roads and over 1200km of unsealed roads which we must maintain year-round. Last year $10.5 million of rate payer money alongside other grants and subsidies was spent on road maintenance alone!
As well as keeping our local roads safe, Council is also contracted to maintain approximately 380km of sealed state roads, 160km of unsealed state roads and 140km of sealed National Highway.
The maintenance of these roads is not funded by Council, however we are always actively advocating for better State and National roads in our region.
