Regions to benefit from upgrades of roads to Renewable Energy Zones
Road upgrades that pave the way for the state’s Renewable Energy Zones (REZs) will start within weeks, after the NSW Government awarded the contract to deliver the first stage of the $128 million Port to REZ Program.
The program will upgrade key roads and intersections to make it possible to transport the oversized equipment needed to build renewable energy projects in regional NSW, and leave improved roads for the whole community.
The Minns Labor Government is investing $110.5 million to build better roads that benefit communities and support the delivery of vital infrastructure and affordable renewable energy. The Australian Government is investing another $18 million in this project.
