The Albanese government’s infrastructure review has recommended 82 projects should be cancelled, after finding the $120 billion program unsustainable in its current form.
Construction has not started on these projects. The review recommends the savings be used to provide “headroom” in the program which is facing a large cost overrun.
The review recommended 100 projects, not yet under construction, should go ahead, while a further 56, also unstarted, should proceed but on the basis that identified risks are addressed satisfactorily.
