A bold 15-year roadmap for Australia’s infrastructure is betting on a ‘digital-first’ approach to accelerate our country’s post-pandemic economic recovery. Released in early September, the 2021 Australian Infrastructure Plan is urging governments to lead the digital transition to unlock significant productivity gains and efficiencies in infrastructure planning, delivery and operations. The plan offers nine key recommendations to ensure it delivers social, economic, environmental and governance outcomes, with a move to foreground sustainability and resilience in future infrastructure planning earning kudos from the Infrastructure Sustainability Council and the Property Council. It also acknowledges that connecting regional and remote Australia has been challenging, particularly during the pandemic, and recommends connecting these areas to 5G next-generation mobile technology.  But it’s the construction sector that features as the true hero in the 327-page infrastructure plan. Ensure the sustainability of your construction business so it can take advantage of upcoming infrastructure projects and let us guide you on finding the best construction insurance for your needs, be it a single project or for annual contract works.
