Examples of road reserve in a sentence
Most suburban bus stops are located in the Road Reserve which is provided under Section 55 (1)(a) of the Land Administration Act 1997.
Complicating the circumstance is the fact that various Government Agencies access the Road Reserve for the purpose of providing services for the benefit of the whole community.
Under section 16 of the Main Roads Act 1930, the Commissioner of Main Roads is responsible for care, control and management of land over which a main road or highway is declared (that is the area incorporating the Road Reserve).
However, in recognition of the particular enhanced amenity derived from bus shelters for intending passengers and the general community, the State Government has traditionally provided funding support (using various funding support arrangements) for Local Governments to provide bus shelter infrastructure located in the Road Reserve.
Local Government may, at its discretion, install Ancillary Bus Stop Infrastructure (including bus shelters) in the Road Reserve and will be responsible for its ongoing care and maintenance unless the PTA has specifically agreed to take responsibility as detailed in section 7.4. To assist Local Government deliver these responsibilities the PTA provides funding through the following arrangements; the Bus Shelter Subsidy Program (BSSP) and the Bus Shelter Maintenance Assistance Scheme (BSMAS).
