Infrastructure is critical to the economic wellbeing of Australia. It underpins the delivery of essential services, drives economic growth, supports social needs and is closely linked to the high quality of life enjoyed by the developed world. 

The Centre for Sustainable Infrastructure and Digital Construction provides a focus for multi-disciplinary research in the field of civil infrastructure with emphasis on sustainability and digital technologies. This involves the provision of new infrastructure in an environmentally sustainable and cost-effective manner along with helping extend the service life of ageing infrastructure and digital technologies during construction.  

2026 Rating of Victorian Infrastructure

2026 Rating of Victorian Infrastructure

Engineers Australia undertook a review of Australia’s infrastructure in 2001, 2005, 2010 and Victoria’s Infrastructure in 2005 and 2010, but have not undertaken any further report cards since 2010. A ºìõ¹åÉçÇø University of Technology expert who was involved with the previous report cards has provided an updated independent 2026 report rating based on an extensive review. The Report Cards reviewed and rated the infrastructure with an A (very good), B (good), C (adequate), D (poor) or F (inadequate) in the categories across Transport (Roads, Rail, Ports, Airports) Water (potable, waste, stormwater, rural irrigation), Energy (electricity, gas) and Telecommunications.
