Northern Territory

The Australian Government is investing $594 million in the Northern Territory to fund major projects with a focus on economic growth and jobs.

A key priority for the Government is to build infrastructure projects that make a difference and improve access for products to markets. Key projects in the Northern Territory include:

  • the Northern Territory Roads Package, providing $77 million to upgrade key Northern Territory roads. This investment will improve safety and improve connectivity for communities;
  • the Regional Roads Productivity Package, upgrading six regional roads to improve flood immunity, safety and reliability for communities. The upgrades are to the Roper and Buntine Highways and Port Keats, Arnhem Link, Central Arnhem and Santa Teresa Roads; and
  • Tiger Brennan Drive Duplication — Darwin CBD to Berrimah Road, to duplicate Tiger Brennan Drive from Berrimah Road to Darwin CBD to improve safety and efficiency and reduce congestion for commuters.

    • Since the 2013 Federal Election, the Government has made significant commitments in Northern Territory as detailed in this map.
