We welcome David Tucker Chief of Infrastructure Assessment at Infrastructure Australia. David joined Infrastructure Australia in 2018 after over 16 years with some of Australia’s top-tier consulting firms. In this episode we chat shop on how infrastructure factors within the property market and how have airports, roads, transport and essential goods been impacted in recent times from the change in working arrangement and the post-COVID normal.Here’s what we covered: What is infrastructure Australia and why does it exist? What are the different classes of infrastructure? How to assess key projects? What has made certain projects more of a priority than others? How has climate change impacted infrastructure projects and schedules? Has COVID shifted much point of view on the upcoming projects? How do regions compete in getting more spending for infrastructure? What projects should we be most excited about? How does infrastructure impact property prices? What will it take to solve the transport problems in Australia? What gaps in our infrastructure do we currently have and how can this be solved?
