The test tracks within the Monegeeta complex included steep grades and inclines, and various specialized test track sections, such as ground and axle clearance tests, articulation tests that twisted a truck chassis, a platform for measuring the centre of gravity, various ditch and obstacle crossing tests, and water splash and immersion tests. The 95-metre long sleeper course was a particularly grueling test track, with timber railway sleepers embedded 50 mm into the ground, and spaced 3 metres apart. A vehicle driven across this course could easily become airborne as a result of the violent bouncing.  The course was designed to test axles and springs, but the bodies of the drivers no doubt got a drastic workout as well!

The infrastructure progressively built at Monegeeta during the war was substantial, so rather than return the property to the original landowner in the post-war period, the land was permanently acquired. The post-war period saw a continuation of testing and experimentation, and the establishment of more or upgraded infrastructure as the years went by, including a deep wading pool.  Monegeeta is still the centre of testing and trials for the Australian Army, and is currently a division of Land Engineering Agency (LEA).
