Victoria’s infrastructure strategy 2021 – 2051

Monday August 23rd, 2021

Infrastructure Victoria is an independent advisory body with three functions:

1) preparing a 30-year infrastructure strategy for Victoria, which we review and update every three to five years;
2) providing written advice to government on specific infrastructure matters;
3) publishing research on infrastructure related issues;

Infrastructure Victoria also supports the development of sectoral infrastructure plans by government departments and agencies. The aim of Infrastructure Victoria is to take a long-term, evidence-based view of infrastructure planning and inform community discussion about infrastructure provision. Infrastructure Victoria does not directly oversee or fund infrastructure projects.

Since Infrastructure Victoria released the state’s first 30-year infrastructure strategy in 2016, the Victorian Government has allocated billions of dollars in investment for new infrastructure; first to support population growth, and then in response to Victoria’s devastating bushfires and the shocks of the COVID-19 pandemic. This has produced record infrastructure investment on new transport, health, education, social housing and tourism infrastructure. Of the 137 strategy recommendations in the 2016 infrastructure strategy, over 90% have commenced or been completed

This updated 30-year strategy charts the next stage of Victoria’s infrastructure journey. It is the culmination of years of work, reflects the current environment, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and draws upon the input of thousands of Victorians. It makes recommendations to help achieve Victoria’s long-term objectives including enhancing productivity, building resilience, responding to climate change, and meeting the social and economic needs of Victorians so they can build flourishing, meaningful, and prosperous lives.
