The Northern Territory Government has awarded a $100 million panel contract to five contractors over the next five years for works on the Territory’s road network.
The five recipients include Downer EDI Works, Boral Asphalt NT, F & J Bitumen Services, NT Bitumen and Asphalt, Top Coat Asphalt and Fulton Hogan Industries.
The panel contract will aim to ensure quck, responsive and regular bitumen resurfacing works across the region. This includes areas such as Central Australia, the Barkly, Big Rivers, Top End regions and include urban roads in Darwin, Palmerston and Litchfield.
The contract is split into a series of schedules and includes large asphalt works, large resealing works, smaller asphalt works such as footpaths and carparks as well as smaller resealing jobs.

The panel contract cuts red tape, saves businesses time and ensures asphalting, sealing and resealing works can be rolled out when and where they are needed while still ensuring all Territory businesses can tender for works.
Minister for Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics Joel Bowden said works would ensure a quick response time for roads that have been damaged or impacted by factors such as weather events.
“Sealing roads across the breadth of the Northern Territory is a priority of the [Territory] Government and makes our roads safer for Territorians and visitors,” Bowden said.
