“…Despite the possible deterioration of a piece of infrastructure and subsequent increased costs in its maintenance, plus the environmental and social impacts, little is done by infrastructure operators to seek innovative solutions in operation or in procuring new projects (Hartshorn et al, 2005). Possible reasons for this include a perceived increase in potential costs, risks and fear of the untested or untried (Hartshorn et al, 2005;Roberts and Sims, 2007). The lack of attention to infrastructure is particularly surprising given that highways, drainage systems and utilities supply all have a major impact on the priority areas for national sustainable development (Chandler et al, 2008;Forman and Alexander, 1998;Lin, 2005), for example through: the consumption of large quantities of primary and secondary construction materials and generation of waste; some of the most heavily consumed materials, cement and asphalt, requiring large amounts of energy in their production and transportation leading to significant greenhouse gas emissions; depletion of natural resources leading to environmental degradation along with loss of natural habitats and major impacts (visual, increased noise, increased emissions, loss of habitat, etc.…”
