Working in Road Reserves
To conduct works within a Murrindindi Shire Council road reserve - such as constructing a vehicle crossing or connecting to a drain - you must first apply for Council consent. You must also apply for an Asset Protection Permit; this can be done at the same time. Please click the link below to complete the online form at least 10 business days prior to scheduled works.
