Shoalhaven was declared a Natural Disaster Area 14 September 2022 (AGRN 1034) after severe weather and flooding events. This had a major impact on Jervis Bay Road, which sustained considerable pavement damage and rapid road deterioration.

Pavement rectification works

Following declared natural disaster 14 September (AGRN 1034), several damaged sections of Jervis Bay Road were endorsed by TfNSW for Natural Disaster Funding. This funding primarily endorsed disconnected patches of pavement for rectification. The sections that were not endorsed by TfNSW will be repaired by Councils' co-contribution funding.

The combined area of the four (4) sites scoped and scheduled for rectification is equal to approximately 15000 metres squared. Stabilising the sections of pavement repairs with new wearing course has been approved as the most practical and cost-efficient treatment method to restore full road width to Jervis Bay Road. Additionally, this will minimise the number of vulnerable edges, reducing the likelihood of future damage between repaired sections of pavement. 

Council appreciates your patience as this repair works program gets underway.
