6 Infrastructure Investment
Key Issues
· The 2022‑23 Budget includes total infrastructure funding of $5.6 billion, an increase of approximately $1 billion from the 2021-22 Budget. This funding continues the Government’s strong commitment to strengthening Tasmania’s future.
· Infrastructure investment in the General Government Sector exceeds $4.8 billion over the 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates. This investment includes funding for roads and bridges ($2.7 billion); human services and housing ($578.4 million); hospitals and health ($490.4 million); schools, education and skills ($313.7 million); ICT support to service delivery ($297.2 million); law and order ($222.9 million); and tourism, recreation and culture ($205 million).
· The Budget includes additional funding of $447.7 million for the delivery of new infrastructure projects, which includes $283.2 million to be delivered by the General Government Sector.
· To support the housing needs of Tasmanians, the Government has announced a 10-year $1.5 billion commitment that will deliver 10 000 new social and affordable homes by 2032. This funding commitment will be delivered by the new Housing Authority.
· The 2022‑23 Budget includes $730.5 million towards the delivery of the New Bridgewater Bridge. This project is the biggest transport infrastructure project in Tasmania’s history and will improve safety, reduce travel times and support local jobs. Construction will commence later this year and, while the project has a target construction completion date of mid‑2025, the bridge will be open to traffic by the end of 2024.
· In
addition to the significant investment in the General Government Sector, the
2022-23 Budget supports investment by government businesses and other entities,
with $736.9 million in equity funding for infrastructure investment. This
funding includes equity contributions of: $229 million to Tasmanian Railway Pty
Ltd for projects including Tranche 4 of the Tasmanian Rail Revitalisation
Program; $202 million to Tasmanian Irrigation Pty Ltd for the Tranche 3 of
the Irrigation Projects and Energy on Farms initiatives; and $100 million to
the Tasmanian Water and Sewerage Corporation Pty Ltd to support its accelerated
infrastructure program.
Overview
The 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates includes investment in excess of $4.8 billion in community infrastructure projects, to be delivered by Government agencies, including:
· roads and bridges ($2.7 billion);
· human services and housing ($578.4 million);
· hospitals and health ($490.4 million);
· schools, education and skills ($313.7 million);
· ICT to support service delivery ($297.2 million);
· law and order ($222.9 million);
· tourism, recreation and culture ($205 million); and
· other infrastructure ($27.8 million).
In addition, the 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates includes infrastructure investment outside of the General Government Sector through government businesses and other entities, supported by Government equity contributions of $736.9 million.
The 2022‑23 Budget supports a substantial pipeline of infrastructure investment to sustain Tasmania’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, support economic activity and jobs across the State, and meet current and future infrastructure needs.
A number of the infrastructure projects extend beyond the current Forward Estimates period including: the New Housing Package; Launceston General Hospital Redevelopment - Stage 2; the Next Iconic Walk, West Tamar Highway Traffic Solution; projects funded under the Roads of Strategic Importance program; and the Tamar River Bridge.
The Government continues to provide Tasmanian businesses with certainty of long‑term growth in public infrastructure investment, enabling businesses to plan and invest with confidence. Further information regarding the Government’s long‑term infrastructure investment plans is available in the 10 Year Infrastructure Pipeline - Online Database.
Chart 6.1 details agency infrastructure investment from 2016‑17 to 2021‑22 and budgeted infrastructure investment over the 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates.
Chart 6.1: Agency Infrastructure Investment, 2016-17 to 2025-26
General Government Sector Infrastructure Investment Projects by Agency
Table 6.1 details infrastructure investment expenditure within the General Government Sector by agency.
Table 6.1: Infrastructure Expenditure by Agency1,2
Notes:
1. This Table includes expenditure (both Purchases of Non-Financial Assets and associated expenses) for all infrastructure projects, but does not include minor asset purchases for non-infrastructure projects. For these reasons, the Table is not equivalent to the Purchases of Non-Financial Assets presented in chapter 4 of this Budget Paper. Table 6.5 provides a reconciliation of Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets to Infrastructure Investment.
2. Estimated Outcome expenditure for some agencies, when compared with the 2021‑22 Budget, may reflect increased expenditure for some projects, partially offset by a change in expenditure from 2021‑22 to 2022‑23 and 2023‑24.
Infrastructure Investment Outside the General Government Sector
Infrastructure investment undertaken by Government Business Enterprises or State-owned Companies is outside of the General Government Sector and is, therefore, not included as infrastructure investment for the purpose of this chapter. Other associated entities such as the Macquarie Point Development Corporation, and the Tasmanian Water and Sewerage Corporation Pty Ltd also operate outside of the General Government Sector. Information on infrastructure investment undertaken by these entities can be found in entity annual reports and on entity websites.
The 2022‑23 Budget includes equity contributions that are provided through the General Government Sector to directly support a number of these entities to undertake infrastructure projects. These equity contributions are detailed in Table 6.2.
All equity contributions to these entities are made through Finance-General.
Over the 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates, the total equity funding allocated to infrastructure investment is $736.9 million. When combined with the General Government Sector agency infrastructure funding, this takes the total investment by the State and Australian Governments in infrastructure over this period to $5.6 billion.
Table 6.2: 2022-23 Budget Total Infrastructure Investment Funding
Notes:
1. The Tasmanian Railway Pty Ltd profile includes new funding for Tranche 4 of the Tasmanian Rail Revitalisation Program, the overhaul of TasRail’s legacy locomotives, the reconnection of the Bell Bay rail line to the Port of Bell Bay and the construction of a new minerals hub on the Melba rail line.
2. In addition to the equity contributions to Tasmanian Water and Sewerage Corporation detailed in this table, the Government is also providing grant funding to support the Macquarie Point wastewater treatment plant relocation project and the upgrade of Launceston’s combined stormwater and sewerage system.
Government Businesses
Hydro Tasmania
The Australian Government has committed $52 million over three years, commencing in 2022‑23, to support the redevelopment of the Tarraleah Power Plant.

Funding of $5.5 million has also been provided to undertake a zero emission bus trial.
Tasmanian Irrigation Pty Ltd
The 2022‑23 Budget and Forward Estimates include the continuation of the State’s equity contributions to Tasmanian Irrigation to support Tranche 3 irrigation projects and the Energy on Farms initiatives. Additional State funding of $1.5 million, in 2022-23, has also been committed to support the Lake Leake Dam Life Extension project.
The Australian Government has committed $90.3 million over the Budget and Forward Estimates to support Tranche 3 irrigation projects, including an additional $13.7 million in funding for the Don Irrigation Scheme in 2022-23.

The equity contributions include existing funding commitments of $117.9 million for Tranches 2 and 3 of the Tasmanian Rail Revitalisation Program, the replacement of the bulk minerals Shiploader and the upgrade of the Bulk Minerals Export Facility at the Port of Burnie. The contributions also include: new funding totalling $111 million over the Budget and Forward Estimates for Tranche 4 of the Tasmanian Rail Revitalisation Program; the overhaul of TasRail’s legacy locomotives; the reconnection of the Bell Bay rail line to the Port of Bell Bay; and the construction of a new minerals hub on the Melba rail line.
Tasracing Pty Ltd
The 2022‑23 Budget includes $5.7 million for racing infrastructure in the North West of the State.
TT-Line Company Pty Ltd
The replacement of TT-Line’s passenger ferries represents a significant long-term investment by the State. TT-Line has entered into a contract with Finnish shipbuilder Rauma Marine Constructions for the delivery of two steel monohull passenger vessels. The contract provides for the delivery of vessel one in late 2023 and vessel two in late 2024. The cost of the purchase of the vessels is supported by the allocation of funding from the TT-Line Vessel Replacement Fund. The balance of the Fund will be withdrawn in 2022-23, in accordance with the contracted payment profile for the purchase of the new vessels.
Other
Macquarie Point Development Corporation
The 2022-23 Budget includes a $37.2 million contribution to the MPDC. This funding will support the next development stage by progressing remediation works and the establishment of key enabling infrastructure.

Reconciliation between Infrastructure Investment and Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets
Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets is an accounting classification under the Australian Accounting Standards. It appears on the Income Statement and Cash Flow Statement and reflects purchases of non‑financial assets such as land, buildings, plant and equipment, infrastructure and intangible assets. While the majority of the Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets is comprised of Infrastructure Investment projects, there is a portion of Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets expenditure that is not included in this chapter. Such items include Budget allocations for:
· the Government’s fleet management services;
· ambulance, surgical and medical equipment;
· computer software; and
· other smaller capital items.
Conversely, Infrastructure Investment projects can include allocations of expenditure which are not classified as Purchases of Non‑Financial Assets under the Australian Accounting Standards, but are directly related to infrastructure projects. This expenditure can include items such as employee entitlements, infrastructure maintenance, grant payments and other supplies and consumables.
Table 6.5 provides a reconciliation between the two measures.
