Draft Stock Underpass Policy
This Consultation has been completed

Council's Draft Stock Underpass Policy aims to guide the construction and responsibilities relating to underpasses.
The Warrnambool municipality has a small number of stock underpasses, which are structures built under roads in order to allow for the efficient travel of livestock between properties.
In most cases a stock underpass will be built where a single owner has two properties which straddle a public road.
Without a stock underpass the property owner is forced to cross the road with the stock in a labour intensive fashion, which can cause traffic hazards.
The use of underpasses also helps preserve the road surface and means there is no disruption to traffic.
The Stock Underpass Policy will ensure stock underpasses are developed to meet appropriate road safety and engineering standards as well as clearly define appropriate maintenance standards and responsibilities.
The policy is available via the link to the right.
