Report a pothole in Wingan River
Who to report a pothole in Wingan River to
Local streets in Wingan River are East Gippsland Shire Council's to maintain and repair.
This road is not the council’s
It is maintained by the Department of Transport and Planning, not by the local council. A pothole on it reported to the council can sit unactioned because it was never theirs to fix.

On the register in Wingan River
Nothing yet. That is not a claim that Wingan River'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 Wingan River 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.
