Infrastructure WA

Please note, this event was postponed due to COVID-19. The updated event can be found here.

Infrastructure shapes the way we live. It affects everything – from our economic prosperity as a state, through to how and where we spend our leisure time, the way we move around and our ability to connect, as both individuals and organisations. 

For too long Western Australia has lacked a long-term vision that sets out the infrastructure blueprint for our state. That changed in mid-2019 with the passing of legislation that saw the creation of Infrastructure WA, an expert body formed to provide advice and assistance to Government on the needs and priorities for infrastructure.

The work that Infrastructure WA is undertaking is unprecedented in this state. 

Tasked with the development of a 20-year State Infrastructure Strategy, Infrastructure WA will be opening the door to a state-wide conversation with the release of its first publication – a discussion paper – on 20 April.

The event will be opened by the Hon Mark McGowan MLA, Premier of Western Australia, whose Government delivered on a key election commitment by enshrining Infrastructure WA into legislation.

Infrastructure WA Chair John Langoulant AO will introduce the discussion paper, outlining why this is an important milestone in the development of the Strategy.

This will be followed by an insightful panel discussion featuring:
•    Hon. Mark McGowan MLA, Premier of Western Australia  
•    John Langoulant AO, Chair, Infrastructure Western Australia
•    Romilly Madew AO FTSE, Chief Executive Officer, Infrastructure Australia
•    Nicole Lockwood, Deputy Chair, Infrastructure WA
