Mr Barilaro said of the $100 million, up to $50 million will be available for regionally iconic tourism activation projects that cost over $5 million.
“We want to see your big projects now—projects that will help to enliven and kick-start local economies, attracting tourists while showcasing the impressive environmental assets our regions have to offer,” Mr Barilaro said.
“Tourism is the lifeblood of many NSW regional communities, attracting domestic and international visitors, creating new jobs and making those towns even better places to live.”
Mr Barilaro said the remaining $50 million would be available for eligible applicants who had strong projects but were unsuccessful at the Expression of Interest stage in round one earlier this year.
The Regional Growth - Environment and Tourism Fund is part of the NSW Government’s commitment to the delivery of infrastructure projects which improve the productivity and competitiveness of the State under Restart NSW.
Applications for the fund will be open from 13 August to 21 September, 2018. For more information, visit www.nsw.gov.au.
