Program Details

A total of $1M in funding is available across Regional NSW for the 2026/27 financial year to plan and deliver minor, low-cost works aimed at improving safety on council managed roads near public level crossings.

A maximum of $100,000 will be awarded for each successful single level crossing project, or $200,000 where a successful nomination involves works at multiple level crossings. To balance high safety benefits and equitable funding distribution, Transport may limit the number of projects awarded to each council.

Minor works projects should be short term in nature, and must be completed in the following timeframes: 

  • Design and planning approvals must be complete within 3 months of the project's successful notification letter.
  • Start of Construction must be commenced within 6 months of the project's successful notification letter.  
  • Provision of a Post-Completion Report (PCR) must occur within three months of the completion of construction. 

All projects must be finalised (including PCR submitted to Transport) by 30 June 2027. 

Refer to program guidelines for further information.
