Sustainable INFRASTAR

Introduction
Infrastructure asset development has a massive impact on society, the environment and the economy. Therefore, it is critical for any infrastructure project to balance economic, societal and environmental sustainability factors in its development. The need for a more standardized method or tool to appraise the sustainability of such action is becoming more essential.
OBJECTIVE
  • To create a continuous awareness of the importance of sustainability throughout the pre-commissioning stages of infrastructure projects

  • To prioritise significant environmental and social attributes for sustainable infrastructure as early as the conceptual stage

  • To convey an improved performance related to environmental and social through project design and construction

  • To recognise and reward efforts made by projects towards achieving an exceptional level of sustainable infrastructure

  • To ensure the implementation of environmental and social best practices are in accordance with the standards adopted locally and globally

  • To measure the level of sustainability of infrastructure projects
