Infrastructure Insight: Australia
Summary
After years of under-investment, there are now huge infrastructure upgrades in roads, rail, and other infrastructure underway, and more in the pipeline over the coming years. The total value of the infrastructure construction market reached AUD55.0 billion (USD 42.0 billion) in 2017, according to the Infrastructure Intelligence Center (IIC), significantly down from AUD63.4 billion (USD 48.6 billion) in 2012. However, output is projected to grow to AUD76.91 billion (USD 59.0 billion) by 2022 (in nominal value terms). Market expansion over the forecast period will be driven by recovery in investment in infrastructure construction activity and improvements in the regional economy. The government's plan to develop the country's transport network is expected to provide positive prospects for the market over the forecast period.
The report provides a detailed analysis of the infrastructure sector in Australia, including the state of current infrastructure, the regulatory and financing landscapes, forecast spending across all key sectors and the major projects in the construction pipeline.
The report covers all key infrastructure sectors: roads, railways, electricity and power, water and sewerage, communication, and airports and ports.
Key Highlights
- The IIC is currently tracking 507 large-scale infrastructure construction projects in Australia, at all stages of development from announcement to execution. These projects have a total investment value of AUD643.2 billion (USD 493.2 billion).
- The railways sector accounts for the largest share of the project pipeline, with a total project value of AUD339.4 billion (USD 260.2 billion). This is followed by roads and energy, with a pipeline value of AUD124.3 billion (USD 95.3 billion) and AUD104.2 billion (USD 79.9 billion) respectively.
- The pipeline for water and sewerage projects and telecommunication stands at AUD6.5 billion (USD 5.0 billion) and AUD15.2 billion (USD 11.7 billion) respectively based on projects tracked by the IIC. For airports and other infrastructure construction projects in Australia, the total pipeline of works has a value of AUD53.4 billion (USD 40.9 billion).
