Labor’s Sea Highway initiative will support existing and new industries
Labor’s investment will increase port capacity and drive down costs for exporters
A Labor Government will invest $150 million into northern Tasmania’s network of ports and other key infrastructure to support the creation and growth of export businesses.
The plan is a key initiative in Labor’s fully costed jobs plan Working for Tasmania.
Labor Leader Rebecca White said a lack of investment in the state’s ports is constraining Tasmania’s export industries and putting a handbrake on business growth and job creation.
“There is a great opportunity here that we must seize and we need to support new and developing export possibilities, as well as existing industries,” Ms White said.
