ABSTRACT

Among the top ten construction projects in 2023, Crossrail 2 - London in the UK is the first, Mumbai International Airport in India is the second, and the third is the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam in Ethiopia. The first two projects are transport investments and the third is the largest hydroelectric energy investment in Africa. Crossrail 2 was estimated to cost ?32,6 billion in 2016. In 2019 Crossrail 2 related reports suggested that the scheme might add up to more than ?45billionn. At Navi Mumbai International Airport the estimated cost of the project was US$ 600 million, this has since grown to US$2,0 billion. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam is estimated to cost close to 5 billion US$. These hugely expensive projects impose a significant burden on society. How can those infrastructural investments be implemented so that the infrastructure to be built can be used safely and economically for several decades?
