The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Minister Assisting the Minister for Planning Minister Assisting the Minister for Housing and Urban Development Brighton Road Resurfacing The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister Assisting the Minister for Planning, Minister Assisting the Minister for Housing and Urban Development): I have been advised of the following: DPTI uses a Pavement Management System to prioritise road resurfacing projects. This system examines the condition of all roads within the Adelaide metropolitan and rural network, in terms of ride quality, age and surface condition. It then provides a suggested program of works indicating the optimum timing to intervene for major pavement repairs or resurfacing works on each road. Brighton Road between Sturt Road and Ocean Boulevard was assessed in conjunction with other roads across the Adelaide metropolitan area and included in 2014-15 financial year. The ride quality and level of pavement failures on the southbound carriageway were considered worse than the northbound carriageway. To ensure available road maintenance funding is allocated to maximise benefits to the community as a whole, it was concluded that only southbound carriageway would be resurfaced in 2014-15 financial year.
