The New South Wales Government has begun recruitment for its $19.4 billion regional roads and transport pipeline.
The Government is currently recruiting for 55 new full time roles based in Orange, Dubbo, Bowenfels and Parkes in the Central West, Coonabarabran, Narrabri and Moree in the North and Broken Hill in the Far West.
State Minister for Regional Transport and Roads, Sam Farraway, said the project would continue despite record Summer rainfall.
“The recent rain has wreaked havoc on our road network and our priority has been to repair these roads as quickly as possible by redirecting teams working on some of our major projects to assist with disaster repairs,” Mr Farraway said.
“With a substantial number of works happening all over the state and in particular in the western region, we are strengthening our workforce to ensure our projects remain on track.
“We are taking steps to ensure that these communities benefit by engaging as many local contractors as possible, and the influx of workers converging to construct these legacy projects bring value to the local economies.”
Mr Farraway said programs such as the Great Western Highway Upgrade, Newell Highway including the Parkes bypass, New Dubbo Bridge and the Mindyarra Rail Maintenance centre are just some examples of the ongoing projects being delivered by our Government in the west region.
“I really want locals to fill these positions and I encourage people interested to visit the Transport website,”Mr Farraway said.
The positions will remain open until October 30, apply here.
