Billions could be saved if we had a more concrete infrastructure project timeline.  

An Infrastructure New Zealand-commissioned report shows streamlining delivery could result in savings of more than 26% on future projects. 

CEO Nick Leggett says if applied, these savings could increase the amount spent on delivery by between 2.3-billion and 4.7-billion-dollars a year, over the 2025-31 period.  

He says planning, procurement, and people become more secure, and as a result the money saved can be reinvested.
