New Zealand unveils a 30-year infrastructure plan to fix underinvestment, improve planning, and boost resilience amid aging systems and climate threats.
New Zealand has released its first National Infrastructure Plan, a 30-year strategy to improve long-term planning, funding, and delivery of infrastructure.
The plan, developed by the independent Infrastructure Commission after public consultation, identifies key challenges including poor asset management, fragmented oversight, and underinvestment in critical systems like water, transport, and health.
It calls for mandatory long-term plans, a unified assurance system, and reforms to funding and delivery, emphasizing efficiency and resilience over large-scale projects.
Despite annual spending over $20 billion, New Zealand lags behind other OECD nations in outcomes, with aging infrastructure strained by climate change and extreme weather.
The government will respond by June 2026 and hold a parliamentary debate to build cross-party consensus on reforms.
