Infrastructure Design Manual
This Infrastructure Design Manual was designed to clearly
document and standardise Council requirements for the design and
development of municipal infrastructure.
It aims to also expedite council engineering approvals and
ensure that minimum design criteria are met in regard to the design
and construction of municipal infrastructure regardless of whether
it is constructed by Council or a developer.
This Infrastructure Design Manual was originally prepared by the
Cities of Greater Bendigo and Shepparton and the Shire of Campaspe
and has since been reviewed and altered and is now used by 18
municipalities across Victoria.
Their joint initiative is one which recognises the benefits of
municipalities working together towards consistent requirements and
standards for the design and development of infrastructure.
