Infrastructure
Investment in infrastructure has the capacity to stimulate and enhance the productivity of the economy in both the short and long term. It is an investment that has a multiplier effect throughout the economy, generating lasting economic, social and environmental benefits.
The Commonwealth’s Infrastructure Investment Framework
The Principles of the Government’s current framework for infrastructure investment.
The Australian Government has announced a new, national approach to planning, funding and implementing the nation’s future infrastructure needs.
The Major Cities Unit provides advice to the Australian Government on issues of policy, planning and infrastructure that have an impact on our cities and suburbs.
This page provides links to information on major infrastructure projects announced in the 2009–10 Budget, Nation Building for the Future.
The Australian Government has developed the $20 million Liveable Cities Program to support state, territory and local governments in meeting the challenges of improving the quality of life in our capitals and major regional cities.
Nation Building—Economic Stimulus Plan
Many of the programs funded by the Nation Building—Economic Stimulus Plan are being administered by the Department of Infrastructure and Transport.
National Alliance Contracting Policy and Guidelines
Following a major reform initiative implemented by the Coalition of Australian Governments (COAG) and its Infrastructure Working Group (IWG), the National Alliance Contracting Policy and Guidelines were released by the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport.
The Australian Government established the Regional Infrastructure Fund to invest the proceeds of a resurgent resource boom to address urgent infrastructure needs, while supporting the mining industry, boosting export capacity and developing and growing regional economies.
Jobs Fund—Infrastructure Employment Projects
The Infrastructure Employment Projects Program is a part of the Jobs Fund—a $650 million Australian Government initiative to support and create jobs and skill development through projects that build infrastructure and social capital in local communities.
Australian Smart Infrastructure Awards
On 17 March 2011, the Australian Smart Infrastructure Awards were presented by the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport at the National Infrastructure Awards 2011 hosted by Infrastructure Partnerships Australia.
