Roadside Environment Committee Resources 

The NSW Government has established the NSW Roadside Environment Committee (REC) to promote and coordinate leading practice in linear reserve environmental management across the State. The REC has a number of resources available to councils to assist in the protection of biodiversity including guidelines on undertaking roadside assessments and preparing Roadside Vegetation Management Plans (RVMP). 

The Managing Roadsides guideline documents produced by the REC are available to councils:

• Managing Roadsides - Planning (PDF, 1.4MB)
• Managing Roadsides - Implementation (PDF, 2.4MB)
• Managing Roadsides - Monitoring and Evaluation (PDF, 6MB)

Note that the previous guide on assessment of roadsides has been replaced with the Rapid Assessment Methodology produced through the Council Roadside Reserves project.

 This project has been assisted by the NSW Government through its Environmental Trust.
