Councils are advised the Federal Government’s Infrastructure Management System (IMS) portal will be unavailable from 11 pm AEST on Wednesday 31 July until 12 pm AEST on Monday 19 August 2024, to cleanse and migrate IMS data to the new Reporting and Program Management (RPM) portal.
Please note, during this time local government agencies will not be able to access IMS.
Land transport programs to be affected include Roads to Recovery, Black Spots, Bridges Renewal, Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity and Safer Local Roads and Infrastructure Programs.
For Roads to Recovery from 1 – 31 July 2024, councils will be able to enter projects to the work schedule in IMS and submit project mapping to have projects assessed by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communication and the Arts. This is important in order to receive the first quarterly payment which is expected to be paid in late August 2024.
The Roads to Recovery team will communicate directly with councils about the timing and access to IMS to support the first payment for the 2024-29 funding period.
If you have any questions regarding the RPM program or shutdown, contact RPMtaskforce@infrastructure.gov.au
