Read the draft National Infrastructure Plan
New Zealand’s infrastructure — our roads, pipes, schools, power lines, hospitals, and much more — affects all of us, every day. Yet when compared to other high-income countries, we spend more per person on this infrastructure, but are in the bottom 10% for the value we get from that spend. That means we need to get smarter about how we invest and make some tough decisions.
The draft National Infrastructure Plan sets out how we can address these challenges. It looks at what we need to do to fix what’s not working, how we can plan better for the future and shows where our infrastructure dollar will have the greatest impact in meeting New Zealand’s future needs.
