From July 2023, local councils will have access to their allocation from the $750 million Phase 4 funding.
Phase 4 funding allocations include an additional $250 million targeted to improve rural, regional and outer urban roads.
Projects funded under Phase 4 are expected to be completed by 30 June 2025.
The Australian Government has committed $3.25 billion to the LRCI program over four phases.
The LRCI program supports councils to deliver priority local road and community infrastructure projects in their region, creating jobs and long-lasting benefits for communities.
In March, the Government extended project construction timelines for Phases 1-3 of the program. Councils across Australia now have until 30 June 2024 to complete works, giving them a much-needed extra year on the LRCI construction timeframes for all three phases.
