We have undertaken analysis of Australia’s key road, rail, port and air infrastructure. This analysis feeds into strategic planning, government relations and community relations. Our experience extends to the assessment of regional transport infrastructure and the essential role it plays in our economy and supporting local communities.
Examples of our work in this area include a major study on nationally significant infrastructure (encompassing transport, energy, water and telecommunications) for Infrastructure Australia, a feasibility study on an inline freight railway line between Melbourne and Brisbane, a study on Australia’s petroleum import infrastructure for the Commonwealth Government, and a regional airport infrastructure study for the Australian Airports Association.
We regularly provide due diligence advice to clients on the buy and sell sides of transactions involving transport infrastructure such as ports and airports. This includes undertaking demand forecasting, market analysis, and financial modelling.
