A Meet the Contractor event in Albury on Thursday will provide an opportunity for businesses and individuals to find out about the Inland Rail project.

 

Representatives of Inland Rail and Albury to Illabo contractor Martinus Rail will be at the session at the Commercial Club, 618 Dean Street, Albury, between 8am and 10am on Thursday 8 May.

The event has created great interest in the region, with more than 95 local businesses already applying for the registration-only event – but there are still places available and time to register on the Inland Rail website.

The Meet the Contractor events are intended to provide local and First Nations businesses and communities with a greater understanding of the opportunities available with the project.

Businesses and individuals who are keen to be involved with Inland Rail will hear from Martinus Rail representatives to learn about the types of goods and services that will be required, as well as employment opportunities and general project information.

Construction is due to commence in the second half of 2025 on enhancements to the existing rail corridor linking Albury and Illabo, and includes enhancements to rail tracks, footbridges and road bridges, overhead structures, signal structures and level crossings.

These works will enable the safe operation of double-stacked freight trains through NSW.

Businesses are encouraged to register for their preferred work packages published on the ICN Gateway website.
