Who to report a pothole in Flowerdale to

Flowerdale is split across Mitchell Shire Council and Murrindindi Shire Council. Which one applies depends on which side of the boundary the pothole is on.

These roads are not the council’s

They are maintained by the Department of Transport and Planning, not by the local council. A pothole on one of them reported to the council can sit unactioned because it was never theirs to fix.

On the register in Flowerdale

Nothing yet. That is not a claim that Flowerdale's roads are fine — it means nobody has filed one here. This register only ever publishes what somebody actually photographed, so an empty suburb says something about us, not about the road.

If a pothole in Flowerdale damaged your car

Victoria's Road Management Act sets a threshold below which a road authority has no liability at all. For 2026-27 it is $1,681, assessed against the financial year the damage happened in, not the year you claim in. What that means for a claim.
