New Dubbo Bridge Project
Together, the Australian Government and the New South Wales Government are investing $220.2 million in the New Dubbo Bridge project. Once complete the project will improve travel efficiency along the Newell Highway, reduce traffic congestion in Dubbo for local, visiting and freight operators and commuters and enhance access across the Macquarie River during flood events.
The New Dubbo Bridge project will provide economic and safety benefits and there are some key opportunities for workers and the region:
- The construction phase of the project will build a stronger region by supporting an estimated 290 direct and 1200 indirect jobs.
- Twenty per cent of the qualified tradespersons working on the project must be apprentices, providing those who are just starting out their career a chance to work on a legacy project that will change the shape of Dubbo.
- The New Dubbo Bridge project will leave a lasting legacy not only in terms of travel in and through Dubbo, but also the new skills and experience it will provide for the local workforce.
- There is an emphasis on forming partnerships with local businesses and a commitment to ensuring at least 20 per cent of the workforce resides in the local area, maximising local employment pathways and workforce numbers.
- We're excited by what this project means for workers in Dubbo and western NSW, with a strong focus on engaging and supporting women, Aboriginal people, trainees, and young workers.
