New Zealand Infrastructure Sector Market Analysis
The infrastructure sector in New Zealand is expected to register a CAGR of over 3% during the forecast period (2023-2028).
- The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the infrastructure industry in the country. The construction activity in the infrastructure sector declined in Q2 2020. In addition, in Q2 2022, vertical infrastructure, which was majorly driven by private investment, experienced a 26% decline in activity compared to the same period in 2019. The infrastructure sector is currently recovering from the pandemic.
- Transportation is one of the major sub-sectors of the country's infrastructure sector. The sector is witnessing significant growth, majorly driven by increasing investments. For instance, in September 2021, more than USD 24 billion in investment was planned for New Zealand's land transport system for the next three years. The total fund includes USD 15.6 billion from National Land Transport Fund (NLTF) and USD 4.6 billion from the local government. In addition, the government invested USD 3.8 billion in additional Crown funding to deliver specific programs through the NLTP.
- Auckland is witnessing lucrative growth in infrastructure projects and creating huge opportunities for private capital, consultants, and developers. The city is registering significant investments in the transport infrastructure sector. In addition, in May 2022, the Auckland Light Rail (ALR) provided opportunities for professional services and consultancy services to procure the project. The project's estimated cost is NZD 14.6 billion (USD 9.3 billion), currently considered New Zealand's largest and most complex infrastructure project. Thus, the increasing investments and sustainable projects will likely drive the infrastructure sector in the country.
