The Infrastructure Priority List is a prioritised list of nationally significant investments. It provides decision makers with advice and guidance on specific infrastructure investments that will underpin Australia's continued prosperity.
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:
Please visit Infrastructure Priority List archive for previous versions.
The Priority List is made up of two broad groups:
The investments outlined in the Priority List undergo a rigorous prioritisation process and are independently assessed by the Infrastructure Australia 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.
The interactive map of the Infrastructure Priority List presents a detailed view of projects and initiatives, and allows you to see which infrastructure solutions from around the country have been positively evaluated.
