We research important infrastructure issues, advise on policy, provide expert project support, and share data on both upcoming projects and infrastructure performance.
Our workWe're working on a National Infrastructure Plan that will help guide decision-making by both central and local government and give the infrastructure industry more confidence to invest in the people, technology and equipment they need to build more efficiently.
National Infrastructure PlanNew Zealand faces some big challenges. We can’t afford to build the infrastructure we need to solve them all. The Infrastructure Priorities Programme (IPP) is a way for us to identify the top infrastructure issues and solutions - so we can be sure we’re making the right decisions.
Priorities ProgrammeThe National Infrastructure Pipeline provides insights into planned infrastructure projects across New Zealand, giving industry information to help coordinate and plan.
