About the CRJO Supported by: The Canberra Region Joint Organisation was proclaimed in -Palerang Hilltops Council May 2018. Regional Council Goulburn Mulwaree The Canberra Region is a unique and diverse geographic Snowy Regional Council region which stretches from the Southern Highlands across Council the South-West Slopes, through the -Canberra Eurobodalla Shire Council Corridor down to the South Coast and then to the Snowy Snowy Valleys Council Mountains. Bega Valley Shire Council Yass Valley Council The total population of the CRJO region, including the ACT, City Council is approximately 751,000 and the total area of the region is Upper Lachlan Shire 70,500 km2. Council The region produces and supports a wide range of primary Wingecarribee Shire Council industries including high quality meats, fine wool, dairy, horticulture, fishing and forestry. There is a significant Council ACT Government tourism industry across the whole region, with health, defence, education, public administration and construction being the main employment sectors in the ACT and Queanbeyan.

NSW Regional Service Infrastructure Plan

We have used the classification system from the 2056 Plan to introduce further strategic projects to improve social connectivity and economic efficiency in the region. All infrastructure projects in the CRJO were reviewed and those that most met the goals of the NSW Regional Service and Infrastructure Plan priorities for inclusion in this prospectus. Projects fall into three categories:

$ Committed initiatives (0-10yrs) Initiatives that either have committed funding, are committed/ contractually committed, are for immediate detailed planning, or are part of key maintenance, renewal or safety programs. Some initiatives are subject to final business case and funding. Initiatives for investigation (0-10, 10-20yrs) Initiatives intended to be investigated for potential commitment or implementation within the next 20 years. Those listed in 0-10 horizon will be prioritised for more detailed investigation to determine if they are required in the next 20 years. Visionary initiatives (20+ years) Longer term initiatives that may be investigated within the next 10 years, but are unlikely to require implementation within 20 years.

For example: The Duplication valued at $800M has been included in Strategy 1, 2 and 3. There is no total price for all Strategies as this would have been reflected as $2.4B of work, when only $800M is requested. **Some project values have not been included as the project is auspiced by RMS, ACT Government or the Federal Government.
