The NSW Government is announcing $9 million to seal the final stretch of Rangari Road in the Narrabri Shire.

The funding, from the NSW Government’s Rural and Regional Roads Fund, will allow Narrabri Shire Council to seal the last 9.6 kilometres of the road, the missing link that connects the Tamworth, Gunnedah and Narrabri local government areas.

Once complete, Rangari Road will be fully sealed for the first time, improving safety, reducing maintenance, and providing a smoother, more reliable route for locals, farmers, freight operators and emergency services.

The upgrade will cut dust, improve traction and reduce potholes, making travel safer and easier year-round, particularly in wet weather when unsealed roads can become impassable.

The $9 million investment brings total government funding for Rangari Road improvements to more than $30 million, completing a vital regional transport corridor and supporting economic growth across Western NSW.
