LISMORE’S FLOOD RECOVERY HITS NEW MILESTONE
Lismore City Council’s mission to rebuild, restore and strengthen community assets and infrastructure following the devastating 2022 natural disasters has reached a significant milestone this month, with 100 projects now complete.
Delivered by Council’s Flood Restoration Portfolio (FRP), the projects span roads, bridges and landslips; sporting venues, cultural hubs and community facilities; and vital flood resilience infrastructure, including urban stormwater drainage.
Combined, they represent approximately 30% of projects in the FRP’s schedule of works.
Notable achievements so far include restoration of 55 road, bridge, and landslip damages, restoration of Lismore City Library, Lismore Regional Gallery and Lismore Airport Terminal and the clearing of more than 8kms of urban stormwater drains.
“Our driving goal has been to deliver the best outcome for the Lismore community, to do it once and do it right,” Lismore City Mayor Steve Krieg said.
“The Flood Restoration Portfolio team has been doing great work since 2022, and following extensive emergency repairs, funding applications, and designing innovative solutions to our unique challenges, it’s now shifting into an exciting new construction phase,” he said.
More than 230 additional projects are now in the advanced planning, design and construction stages, with road restorations and flood resilience upgrades to see the highest focus in the coming months and years.
The Flood Restoration Portfolio is proudly funded by the Australian and NSW Governments.
