SWRRTG

The SWRRTG is a strategic collaboration between the Councils of Balonne, Bulloo, Maranoa, Murweh, Paroo, Quilpie and the DTMR and LGAQ which aims to develop and improve regionally significant transport infrastructure and to improve the knowledge, decision making and capability of its members.

​

Regional Roads and Transport Groups (RRTGs) are comprised of local government elected representatives and a Department of Transport and Main Roads District Director. RRTGs work collaboratively to regionally plan for and prioritise investment on road and transport infrastructure, including allocating funding to the highest priority projects and identifying opportunities for financial efficiencies.

Each RRTG is supported by a Technical Committee. The Technical Committee is responsible for local knowledge sharing and providing technical expertise and advice to RRTGs. These committees are generally comprised of an engineer or senior manager from each local government, or an engineering consultant engaged by the local government, and a senior technical officer for each department district represented on the RRTG.

Both the Board and RRTGs are supported in their operations by the Roads and Transport Alliance Project Team. This team is made up of staff members from the LGAQ and from the department’s Local Government Partnerships team.
