Title: C-minus card means we must try harder
Author(s): Wilson, John
Abstract: Every five years, Engineers Australia releases a report card on the condition of state and national infrastructure. The most recent Victorian Infrastructure report card, released last year, rates Victoria's infrastructure as C-minus, meaning it is barely adequate. The report card found old and ageing infrastructure systems that were struggling to meet the demands of a rapidly growing population that has seen the urban fringe boundaries spreading unsustainably.
