Online CorridorAccess & Permits

For all invasive works within the Road Corridor

Road-Controlling Authorities (& Municipalities) require any person intending to dig in the road corridor to apply for, and have approved prior to the commencement of works, a CorridorAccess Request (CAR) Permit.

You may find your State has a Code of Practice; this Code will typically require any person and / or organisation, wishing to excavate in the Road Corridor to conform to this code of application and implementing permits for corridor access. If you require further details about a States Code of Practice, we encourage you to give them a call.

To assist contractors in complying with the requirement of Permitting within the road corridor, PelicanCorp has introduced CorridorAccess That allows contractors to apply for their CAR (also may be known as a Road Opening Notice, or RON) at the same time as organising their asset locates and plans, if the intended excavation site is within the road corridor.
