In June 2016 The Northern Territory saw contract awards totaling more $39m. The massive amount of projects will support development and create real jobs and opportunities for local contractors and small businesses.
The projects are aimed at upgrading schools, community housing and other vital infrastructure through the NT.
Over $20m of the $39m awarded in June was through the NT's Boosting Our Economy package which is aimed at providing immediate job opportunities for local small to medium businesses.
Some of the 38 contract tenders awarded in June include:
Minister for Infrastructure Peter Chandler said that the projects will help boost the economy in NT by "delivering critical infrastructure and improving access to goods and services for remote Territorians" while also enhancing the lifestyle of locals.
Expect to see a lot of plant and equipment around soon, including cranes, dozers, graders, excavators, forklifts and loaders to name a few.
Stay tuned for progress updates on works, especially if you're a local contractor!
