Driving infrastructure
renewal
The Shire of Pyrenees, a local gov-
ernment area in Victoria, hosts a pop-
ulation of approximately 7,000. The ru-
ral municipality has an annual budget
of about $20 million, including $7 mil-
lion in capital. With an infrastructure
renewal gap of about $2 million per
year, the Council is heavily invested in
retaining its assets as they face the
challenge of managing infrastructure
projects and capital works within an
environment of financial restrictions.
