We are please to announce that our new online training course is now live. The course is designed for professionals working on infrastructure proposals to submit to Infrastructure Australia for evaluation.

In 2019, the Australian Infrastructure Audit found that a new wave of investment and reform was needed to ensure Australia’s infrastructure continues to support our quality of life and economic productivity over the next 15 years. The 2020–21 Federal budget, released by the Treasurer last night, has provided one of the largest boosts to infrastructure investment in recent times.

The evolving impacts of COVID-19 remain front of mind at Infrastructure Australia, as we look to progress investments and reforms that enable the long-term sustainability of the infrastructure sector, build community resilience and support the transformation of the Australian economy.

By strengthening dialogue with diverse infrastructure experts and with infrastructure users, we ensure that our infrastructure planning is grounded in the needs of the community as well as the priorities of industry and all levels of government.

The 2019 Audit presents a forward-looking view of Australia’s infrastructure challenges and opportunities over the next 15 years and beyond. The Audit is a truly collaborative document, spanning across themes, sectors and geographies.

Infrastructure Australia CEO Romilly Madew AO provides an update on the key achievements of Infrastructure Australia during her first three months in the role. She also outlines what to expect from Infrastructure Australia's next major releases, including the forthcoming 2019 Australian Infrastructure Audit and 2020 Infrastructure Priority List.

Infrastructure Australia is committed to ensuring that decisions on infrastructure funding and reform are based on independent, evidence-based advice. We want to make our advice as accessible as possible to all Australians – be they community members, those responsible for developing project business cases, or infrastructure decision-makers.

Infrastructure Australia launches the 2019 Infrastructure Priority List, the consensus list of the infrastructure investments Australia needs over the next 15 years.

On behalf of the Infrastructure Australia Board, I am pleased to announce that Ms Romilly Madew has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer of Infrastructure Australia.
