The Northern Territory provides many opportunities for strategic private sector investment and the Northern Territory Government will support the growth and adaptability of local industry so it is strategically aligned with our growth sectors and global demand.

Territory-Wide Logistics Master Plan I 5 GOVERNMENT’S INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS

The Northern Territory Government is committed to continuing to deliver a high level of services to Territorians, in a way that is sustainable in the long term.

Our plans for generational change involve investing in Tourism kids, investing in remote housing, investing in health Tourism is a cornerstone of the Territory economy, and education, properly funding and resourcing police, supporting thousands of small and medium-sized and fixing the broken youth justice system. businesses. As part of the $103 million boost With declining levels of private sector construction to Turbocharging Tourism stimulus program, the activity, the Territory Government has actively Northern Territory Government is developing long supported the construction sector through its own term tourism industry strategies that will strengthen infrastructure programs, procurement policy reform and and build on work that has already been undertaken targeted stimulus programs. across the sector. The Northern Territory Government continues to Remote Housing Program support tourism initiatives that seek to provide As part of a focused plan to create jobs and increase increased private sector investment, attract visitors community safety, remote housing is a cornerstone of and support local jobs. In May 2019, $62.8 million generational change. was announced to continue the Turbocharging Tourism initiative (Turbo2). The Northern Territory Government has committed a record $1.1 billion investment over 10 years into remote housing, with the Australian Government contributing $550 million towards the program. This will see an expansion of construction activity and investment across remote and regional areas of the Territory, providing opportunities for improved outcomes and economic growth in the bush. Delivering a record investment into remote housing will draw on commitments made through the Local Decision Making framework. This investment will promote opportunities to support local economic development, build the capacity of Aboriginal Businesses Enterprises and provide for Aboriginal employment and training. Transport and Logistics The Northern Territory Government continues to focus on integrating community and land development needs with industry best practice to ensure the logistics networks and commuters are connected across the Northern Territory in our urban, regional and mining centres and our many remote Aboriginal communities. Strategic transport planning will ensure logistics networks are operating safely, reliably and efficiently to address current and future needs of residents and our key sectors – resources, tourism, pastoralist, energy and agriculture industries. The Ship Lift Facility at East Arm will be the largest ship lift in Northern Australia. Once operational the facility will be a catalyst for the development of the Territory’s marine maintenance and servicing industry.

The goal now is to prove-up the commercial viability of these resources and maximise the benefits for Territorians wherever possible.

In the Northern Territory, physical impacts such as higher temperatures, sea level rise, and more intense and frequent extreme weather events present challenges to the operation and maintenance of existing infrastructure.
