Mobile Black Spot Program
The Federal Government is calling on mobile black spot nominations from local, territory and state governments as well as Federal Members of Parliament, to identify locations for the next round of the $220 million Mobile Black Spot Program.
Round 4 of the program was announced in June this year with the Coalition investing $25 million to eliminate mobile black spots in regional Australia.
Minister for Regional Services, Senator Bridget McKenzie, said this next round affirms the Coalition’s commitment to delivering 21st century communications in the regions and will deliver real benefits for our communities.
Local communities are encouraged to get in touch with their Federal Member of Parliament or local council to nominate mobile black spot locations.
The Government will soon call for applications from carriers to be selected through a competitive process. For more information on the program visit:
