Who to report a pothole in Lovely Banks to

Local streets in Lovely Banks are Greater Geelong City Council's to maintain and repair.

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 Lovely Banks

Nothing yet. That is not a claim that Lovely Banks'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 Lovely Banks 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.
