INTRODUCTION The Coorong District Council comprises 8,836 square kilometers of mainly rural land serviced by the towns of Tailem Bend, Meningie, Tintinara and Coonalpyn and other smaller settlements. The resident population of the District is 6,000, with about half that number being concentrated in the towns. At any time the travelers on the main highways swell the actual number of persons in the area. Three highways being Dukes Highway, Princes Highway and Mallee Highway pass through the District carrying heavy and general traffic between South Australia and the eastern states. The Council maintains a total of 1,800 kilometers of unsealed and sealed roads throughout the District. The Adelaide - Melbourne railway line divides the District and is met by two regional feeder lines mainly carrying grain to Tailem Bend for storage and eventual movement by rail to Port Adelaide. The area has a growing tourism focus as people seek out the natural environment that is available through the extensive National Parks, which are a feature of the district. The Coorong National Park from which the District takes its name is of world significance as a wetland of international importance. Refer Appendix –1 & 5 When considering the Terms of Reference a significant numbers of areas could be addressed and we will touch on a few of those in the latter half of the submission.

The building boom kicks off this month and will support more than 1,300 jobs as the Marshall Government continues to build what matters to South Australians. Major construction begins on two of the biggest regional infrastructure projects ever undertaken in this state - the Port Wakeeld Overpass and Highway Duplication and the Joy Baluch AM Bridge Duplication Project. Showcasing a commitment to improving regional roads, next month shoulder sealing works will also begin on the Tod and Birdseye Highways. In metropolitan Adelaide, major construction works will start by the end of the year on the much anticipated upgrade of the intersection of Goodwood, Springbank and Daws Roads, as well as the Main North, Kings and McIntyre Roads Intersection Upgrade. Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Corey Wingard said these important projects will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most. “The economic challenges our state is facing at the moment are unprecedented,” Minister Wingard said. “Getting major works started on infrastructure projects across South Australia will help keep the economy ring as we navigate our way through the COVID-19 pandemic. “Creating jobs is critical to our economic recovery and we’re delivering around 1,315 over the next six months in road infrastructure projects alone.

The below brief summarises the new measures put in place by each government to accelerate capital works projects and stimulate economic growth. Federal On 15 June, the Federal Government announced $1.5 billion in infrastructure funding to accelerate planning processes for 15 major projects across the country, including: • Inland Rail Link between Melbourne and Brisbane • Marinus Link between Tasmania and Victoria • Olympic Dam Mine in South Australia • Emergency town water projects in NSW • Road, rail and iron ore projects in Western Australia The Federal Government also announced the previously established Deregulation Taskforce will be moved into the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, to be led by Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister and Cabinet, Ben Morton to “drive a whole-of-government approach to how regulatory policy is prosecuted”.
