The report summarises the results of detailed transport network modelling undertaken by Veitch Lister Consulting on behalf of Infrastructure Australia for the 2019 Australian Infrastructure Audit. The modelling was undertaken for the nation’s six largest urban conurbations, defined as an extended urban area. 

The 2019 Audit covers transport, energy, water, telecommunications and – for the first time – social infrastructure, and looks at the major challenges and opportunities facing Australia’s infrastructure over the next 15 years and beyond. We have presented our findings in terms that matter to users, by focusing on outcomes for them. Our hope is that this enhanced focus on users, and the role infrastructure can play in improving their quality of life, helps to drive better decisions that are rooted in the long-term interests of Australians.

Outer Urban Public Transport: Improving accessibility in lower-density areas is the seventh paper in Infrastructure Australia's Reform Series.

Prioritising Reform: Progress on the 2016 Australian Infrastructure Plan provides an update on the progress of infrastructure reform in Australia against the recommendations in the 2016 Australian Infrastructure Plan.

Making Reform Happen: Using incentives to drive a new era of infrastructure reform is the sixth paper in Infrastructure Australia's Reform Series.

Infrastructure Australia's report to the Council of Australian Governments, Communicating the Imperative for Action, outlines the areas that Infrastructure Australia will focus its efforts in over four-year period following the release of the report. The report discusses issues affecting cities, water, energy, freight, broadband and Indigenous infrastructure.

This report outlines how Infrastructure Australia aims to address the key infrastructure challenges facing the nation's transport, water, energy and communications infrastructure.

This discussion paper examines the benefits of a range of renewable transport technologies such as V2G, PHEVs and Smart Grids. It explains how, when used in combination, they can lead to even greater reductions in fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
