Section 138 Road Opening Permit
Coolamon Shire Council is the Road Authority for public roads within Coolamon Shire, with the exception of freeways and crown roads. To undertake work/activity on, or alongside, public roads an Section 138 permit must first be obtained. This advises Council of the planned work/activity and allows Council to assess the necessary implementation of standards relevant to the work/activity being proposed. These specific standards need to be identified and adhered to, ensuring Coolamon Shire roads are kept safe and well maintained.
