Parkes Shire Council was invited to speak at the recent ALC/ARA Inland Rail Conference about how we leveraged the benefits of Inland Rail for our community.

Council's Economic & Business Development Manager Anna Wyllie joined a panel of experts to reflect on the strategies that worked.

Anna's key takeaway from the project for other communities was
"Inland Rail for us, was a communication project with a bit of engineering thrown in."

From building effective relationships with ARTC and key project
stakeholders, to communicating the construction and supply opportunities for our local businesses who may have needed to scale up or pivot and change their business model to meet demand was key.

"The hard work paid off - unemployment fell by 3%, GRP
increased by 5%, 762 locals directly employed, 99 local businesses engaged and $100M in local procurement."

Inland Rail has been a long term vision of the Shire community, that stretches back to the late 1800s and it is great to see the Parkes to Narromine section of the Inland Rail project now complete.

The project has had significant economic benefits for the Parkes Shire community, particularly during the trying times of the drought and the COVID-19 pandemic.
