Funding for 93 new Black Spot projects in New South Wales

Funding under the Australian Government’s Black Spot Program will substantially improve 93 dangerous crash sites on New South Wales roads in 2022–23.

The state will receive $29.5 million under the Black Spot Program’s 2022–23 funding round.

The Black Spot Program funds safety measures such as traffic signals and roundabouts at locations where a number of serious crashes are known to have occurred, or are at risk of occurring.

These 93 Black Spot projects will make an important contribution towards reducing serious injuries and deaths on New South Wales roads, and build on previous investments in the state.

Black Spot Consultative Panels provide the opportunity for stakeholders to have a say in the project selection process, and ensure that nominations of the highest priority and importance to the local community are recommended for approval.

The panel that reviews priorities for the program in New South Wales includes representatives from the National Roads and Motorists’ Association, the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australia, NSW Police Force, the Federation of Parents & Citizens Associations of NSW, the Traffic Management Association of Australia and Transport for NSW.

A list of funded projects is available below.

Quotes attributable to Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Carol Brown:

“This major investment is part of the Australian Government’s commitment to building safer roads.

“The Australian Government has committed $110 million per year to the Black Spot Program to improve road safety across the nation.

“In announcing these new projects, this Government recognises the importance of working with the NSW Government to partner with local councils to deliver the program in the state.

“This Government is investing in road safety right across the nation to ensure Australians get home safely every trip.”

Quotes attributable to Federal Member for Gilmore and Chair of the New South Wales Black Spot Consultative Panel Fiona Phillips:

“The Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics has found that Black Spot projects reduce the number of crashes causing death and injury by 30 per cent on average.

“This investment in Black Spot projects will deliver safer roads throughout the state.”
