Local Governments Are Prioritising Preventative Flood Maintenance in 2025.
Preventative Flood Maintenance Is No Longer Optional for Australian Councils
With more than $2 billion needed over the next five years to climate-proof Australia’s communities, councils are under mounting pressure to deliver resilience – not just response. As highlighted in ALGA’s recent “Adapting Together” report, early interventions like flood sensor calibration, camera tuning, and remote diagnostics play a vital role in protecting communities and managing risk ahead of seasonal events.
That’s why Qteq is working closely with local governments across QLD and NSW to deliver preventative maintenance on flood and water monitoring systems – before the wet season hits.
Whether it’s our Q-Watch product of roadside flood cameras, rainfall gauges, or water quality sensors, we’re also helping councils safeguard the value of their existing infrastructure investment through site inspections, updates, repairs and preventative services.
This is especially important for remote regions where connection reliability and digital coverage remain vulnerable. Field crews can address data gaps now and confirm sensor performance in real time, so councils aren’t left scrambling at the last minute, during high-impact events.
Key Benefits for Councils:
Extend the life and performance of flood monitoring infrastructure
Prevent downtime in high-risk months
Bolster disaster preparedness programs with actionable field data
Increase public trust and invest in community safety
