The Community Consultative Committee (CCC) is a forum for open conversation between Inland Rail, the local community, stakeholder groups and local councils on issues directly relating to the Albury to Illabo project.
The Albury to Illabo CCC is made up of two sub-committees, covering:
- Albury and Greater Hume local government areas
- Lockhart, Wagga Wagga and Junee local government areas
In addition to the Independent Chair, there are 15 members across the two sub-committees, who will provide input and feedback into the Albury to Illabo project.
The Albury to Illabo CCC held its first meetings for each sub-committee on 24 February 2021.
