Current Infrastructure Priority List
- September 2018 PDF: 430 KB
The Infrastructure Priority List is a live document and is updated regularly. Each year, however, we publish a static version of the Priority List that includes summaries of the projects and initiatives included:
- March 2018, The Infrastructure Priority List, Project and Initiative Summaries PDF: 24275 KB
Please visit Infrastructure Priority List Archive for previous versions.
The Priority List is made up of two broad groups:
- Projects are potential infrastructure solutions for which a full business case has been completed by the proponent and positively assessed by the Infrastructure Australia Board.
- Initiatives are potential infrastructure solutions for which a business case has not yet been completed. Initiatives are identified through a collaborative process between proponents and the Infrastructure Australia Board, using the Australian Infrastructure Audit and other data as evidence.
The investments outlined in the Priority List undergo a rigorous prioritisation process and are independently assessed by Infrastructure Australia's Board.
For more detailed information on the prioritisation process and how the Infrastructure Priority List is developed, please see the video below or consult our Assessment Framework.
Infrastructure Priority List map
In March 2018, we released an interactive map for the Infrastructure Priority List.
The map presents a detailed view of projects and initiatives, and allows you to see which infrastructure solutions from around the country have been positively evaluated.
