Karratha–Tom Price Road Project
In March 2019, the Federal Government made a pre-election commitment to contribute $248 million toward sealing the Karratha to Tom Price Road. This is in addition to the $50 million already committed by the WA Government in 2018.
Sealing this road will provide many benefits to the region, including connecting Karratha to the greater Pilbara, providing accessibility to Karijini National Park from Karratha and enabling drive-in, drive-out (DIDO) opportunities for isolated mine sites. Specifically, an economic model identified that should the Balla Balla Infrastructure Group Project engage a DIDO workforce, it could result in up to 850 workers residing locally, which would provide an estimated 1.718 billion to the Economic Output for the Pilbara region.
Construction of Stage 3, which includes the section of road from Karratha to Millstream Chichester National Park, is expected to commence in June 2019 and be completed by the end of 2019. For more information, click here, https://project.mainroads.wa.gov.au/home/karrathatomprice/Pages/default.aspx.
