The Australian Government has identified infrastructure development as a priority and plays a leading role in building the country's infrastructure, including road and rail networks.
The Government has committed over A$50 billion for current and future infrastructure investments for the period 2013-14 to 2019-20 onwards. This investment is combined with contributions from local, state and territory governments, and the private sector.
To support industry engagement on major projects, the Australian Government maintains a publicly accessible list of upcoming public infrastructure works contracts. The National Infrastructure Construction Schedule (NICS) lists public infrastructure projects going to market (including government asset sales) across all levels of government. It provides investors with an accurate, transparent view of current and future opportunities to help them select and plan projects.
