For this market, strategy is especially tied to resilient ports, airports, coastal protection and import-dependent supply chains.

Transport Priorities

Transport priorities include maintaining and expanding strategic road corridors, modernising key airports and aviation support assets, improving port access, terminal efficiency and last-mile logistics, and targeted rail or BRT investment where it can unlock freight and urban mobility gains.
