You need to apply for a permit to conduct works on or occupy Council land and to drive oversized/over-mass vehicles on Council roads.
Works on and occupation of Council land
You need a permit to conduct any works on or occupy Council land, including public roads, car parks, gardens, and parks. Occupation includes any events that take place on or impact Council land.
A permit is free if you send the application in advance and receive the permit before the works or occupation starts. We process most applications within a week.
To apply for a permit you must provide evidence of public liability insurance of a minimum of $10 million. Depending on the nature of your works or occupation, you may also have to submit a Traffic Management Plan that conforms to Australian Standard AS1742.
Heavy vehicle access on Council roads
You require a permit to drive oversized or over-mass vehicles on Council roads.
You must apply for a permit via the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator. Council will approve the permit from the NHVR.
