Northern Beaches Council is one of the 35 councils to benefit from funding to repair locally damaged roads following severe weather events last year.
The $9.13M allocated to Council will assist in the repair of a vast number of unbudgeted repairs. These works have commenced and will be undertaken over the next 12 months.
Northern Beaches Council CEO Ray Brownlee said Council manages 844 km of local roads and the extra funding was welcome news.
"The flood events we had last March and July and the continued rain over the past year has done untold damage to our roads," Mr Brownlee said.
"Our crews continue to work hard to get on top of every pothole reported on our local roads.
"In the last 12 months Council has repaired over 8,500 road maintenance requests. We're grateful to the NSW Government for the contribution to help us get on with the job and return our roads to an adequate condition.
"We will continue to work closely with Transport for NSW and will meet regularly with government representatives to discuss and address areas of concern on the state road network."
The funding is shared between councils is based on the proportion of overall roads in their Local Government Area.
Members of the public can report damage to local roads via Council's Customer Service number 1300 434 434 or online.
For state-owned roads, such as Barrenjoey and Pittwater Roads and Wakehurst Parkway, please report them to Transport for NSW.
