Council's maintenance crews have been hard at work repairing roads and clearing drains, trees and debris following more than a metre of rain falling across the local government area since 31 January 2025.
Acting Mayor Ann-Maree Greaney said crews had filled more than 1600 potholes since the rain event started.
"Council has a record of streets that are prone to potholes, including Sturt Street, North Shore Boulevard and Alligator Creek Road. The team makes sure to prioritise these areas to fix them as quickly as possible to reduce further damage to the roads, and then moves on to fixing potholes reported by residents and visitors," Cr Greaney said.
"So far our crew has filled more than 1600 potholes, with more to go, especially along residential roads. If you see a pothole please report it using Snap Send Solve or by calling 13 48 10 to make sure our crew is aware."
Cr Greaney said conditions for mowing were challenging following the long period of intense rainfall.
"Soil across our city is extremely wet and soft, which means our crews are not driving heavy mowers onto grassy areas to prevent costly and time-consuming damage to the grass and the machinery," she said.
"What the team is doing is using long-armed slashers, whipper snippers, clearing debris from parks and footpaths, and creating a trimmed buffer on the edges of concrete footpaths. Once the ground has dried up sufficiently we'll see an increase in mowing activity across the city."
Council crews are also street sweeping areas impacted by erosion, doing proactive daily checks of drains deemed to have a high risk of blockages and clearing blockages from drains or as they are reported via Snap Send Solve
