Abstract

Infrastructure investments can have long term consequences for the economy and environment of a country. Some notable public infrastructure projects include energy, transportation, water, and waste disposal systems. There are strong financial, environmental, and social change drivers that are forcing immediate changes. We need to rethink our infrastructure investments and develop sustainable, resilient, and affordable infrastructure systems for vital services of our society. These systems will be able to support the healthy and prosperous communities in future. The objective of this chapter is to review the current state of sustainable infrastructures and provide suggestions to policy makers responsible for infrastructure development how to develop sustainable infrastructures.
