The NSW Government's $500 million Regional and Local Roads Repair Program (RLRRP) was established so all local councils across NSW have access to funding to repair damaged Local and Regional Roads under their care and responsibility as a result of natural disasters in 2022.
The RLRRP is in addition to several grant funding programs already in place to support councils manage a safe and efficient road network, including the $543 million Fixing Country Roads Program, $500 million Fixing Local Roads program, the $50 million Fixing Local Roads – Pothole Repair Round, the Towards Zero - Local Government Road Safety Program, and the annual Regional Road Block and REPAIR grants.
This grant funded program is administered by Transport for NSW.
Program objective
The RLRRP is a Transport for NSW grant program, providing funding to assist local councils across NSW with urgent road repairs, priority corrective maintenance works and repair of potholes on Local and Regional roads.
Local and Regional Roads are council managed roads and are two of the three administrative classifications used in NSW (refer to Appendix A for further information):
- Local Roads
- Regional Roads
- State Roads
The grant funding was made available to eligible councils and authorities to undertake priority maintenance works and immediate repairs on their Local and Regional roads.
The grant funding was made available to eligible councils and authorities based on the total of kilometres of the Local and Regional road network managed in their Local Government area.
