Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says infrastructure is critical to taking advantage of Asia's growing middle class.
Infrastructure will be "absolutely critical" to Australia's success in the 21st century, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says.
Launching a landmark 15-year blueprint for Australian infrastructure on Wednesday, Mr Turnbull said the government was committed to using infrastructure to take advantage of Asia's growing middle class.
"We have this phenomenal opportunity," Mr Turnbull told reporters in Brisbane.
Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce said the report was "visionary", proposing an inland rail link between Melbourne and Brisbane.
"This is something that makes people excited about the future," Mr Joyce said.
