Infrastructure Australia (IA) has released its 2021 update of the Infrastructure Priority List which showcases the Australian Government's commitment to delivering the infrastructure that the nation needs. 

According to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormack, the list complements Australia's infrastructure-led economic recovery from the recent COVID-19 pandemic. 

“I am pleased to see a strong focus on economic development in regional communities, with projects such as the Federally-funded Parkes Bypass highlighted by IA as a priority corridor which will deliver long-term benefits for the freight operators, farmers and manufacturers of the region. 

“The Priority List helps inform future Australian Government investments as we continue to deliver on our 10-year, $110 billion infrastructure plan which is laying the foundations of economic recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic,” Minister McCormack said. 

This year's updated Priority List highlights a $59 billion pipeline of nationally-significant investment opportunities on infrastructure, including 44 new infrastructure proposals – the largest number of new proposals to be added to the Priority List to date. 

Key themes of this year’s Priority List include: 

  • Developing gateways to support our international competitiveness 
  • Investment in new sources of energy 
  • Water security 
  • Regional infrastructure that drives economic development, service quality, digital connectivity and digital health services 

“The Infrastructure Priority List provided important input into the Government’s considerations on which major national infrastructure projects should receive federal funding. 

“The Government has already committed to many of the initiatives on the list, which are helping bust congestion, increase road safety and improve travel times in both regional and urban areas,” Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts Paul Fletcher said.
