What drives infrastructure costs – and where can we make a difference

Our latest ‘Infrastructure lessons from around New Zealand’ case study explores how Transpower is planning the renewal of the Cook Strait high voltage direct current (HVDC) cables.

It shows that, across the scenarios modelled, flood damage is expected to increase over the coming decades, with the impacts felt unevenly across the country.

The New Zealand Infrastructure Commission, Te Waihanga, has published the results of the third round of the Infrastructure Priorities Programme (IPP).

The Government has released its formal response to the National Infrastructure Plan. This marks a new phase for New Zealand’s infrastructure system.
