Border Rail

The Border Rail is a proposed 350km rail corridor linking Moree in New South Wales to Toowoomba in Queensland. It is planned to be a standard gauge open access railway that seeks to connect the Clarence Moreton Minerals basin to the Port of Newcastle.

ARG prepared and presented its Business Case to the New South Wales and Queensland Governments in March 2008. Both governments have since authorised the project to proceed through a coordinated planning and approvals process.

In July 2010, the Federal Government granted Major Project Facilitation (MPF) Status to the project.

The project is currently in prefeasibility stage, as ARG works with potential foundation customers to determine timeframes for its delivery.
