Since 2007 we have delivered major infrastructure improvements for the people of Scotland and significant progress continues to be made as demonstrated by this report and by our accompanying published pipeline of project activity. In 2017 we delivered major infrastructure priorities such as the opening of the Queensferry Crossing, the largest bridge of its type and a complex engineering feat. We saw the completion of the so-called ‘missing link’ between Glasgow and Edinburgh with the opening of the M8 M73 M74 Motorway Improvements Project and the first section of A9 Dualling Programme was completed with the opening of the Kincraig to Dalraddy section. We saw one of the most advanced hospitals in the country completed with the opening of the new Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary as well as the completion of the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service’s new national centre at the Heriot-Watt Research Park in Edinburgh. Over the course of the last year we also saw no fewer than forty one school projects completed within the Scottish Government supported Schools for the Future building programme. In total over the course of last year and up to March 2018, infrastructure projects worth £3 billion opened to the public or completed construction within our project pipeline. Our project pipeline publication also shows that infrastructure projects totalling £4.1 billion are estimated to be in construction across Scotland during the remainder of 2018 alone. It shows that major projects such as the A90 Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie-Tipperty road scheme, the electrification of the Stirling Dunblane Alloa rail line and the V&A Museum of Design in Dundee are all expected to complete construction and become operational in 2018. In addition to this progress report and our project pipeline, an accompanying update has also been published on the progress of major capital projects. Our aim is to give the market and other interested stakeholders a clear overview of our long-term investment plans and the progress we are making and we will continue to update these regularly on our website. All of these reports can be found way of the following link: www.gov.scot/Topics/Government/Finance/18232/IIP Our £4 billion commitment in 2018-19 to new infrastructure investment will support 50,000 new homes, investment in early learning and childcare facilities, new roads and railways, electric vehicles and the delivery of 100% superfast broadband to every corner of Scotland. We look forward to continuing to work with the private sector, local government, and all our stakeholders to ensure that collectively we maximise the benefits of infrastructure investment to the people of Scotland. Keith Brown MSP Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Jobs and Fair Work 1 Overview Report The Infrastructure Investment Plan The Scottish Government’s Infrastructure Investment Plan 2015 was published on 16 December 2015 and set out priorities for investment and a long term strategy for the development of public infrastructure in Scotland. It set out why the Scottish Government invests, how it invests and what it intends to invest in up to 2035 sector by sector. The Scottish Government is firmly committed to infrastructure investment as a key factor in securing economic growth and our focus is on stimulating growth, protecting and creating jobs and promoting Scotland as a great place to do business. Infrastructure investment is at the heart of Scottish Government economic strategy and it is clear that this must continue in order to provide stability in our economy and support our long-term vision of a prosperous, fair and well-connected country. We recognise that infrastructure investment is key to: delivering sustainable economic growth through increasing competitiveness and tackling inequality; managing the transition to a more resource efficient, lower carbon economy; supporting delivery of efficient and high quality public services; and supporting employment and opportunity across Scotland. The Government Expenditure and Revenues Scotland (GERS) publication provides details of capital expenditure for Scotland beyond that invested by the Scottish Government and can be found using the following link: http://www.gov.scot/Publications/2017/08/7201/downloads. It include estimates of spend on capital by the Scottish Government, Scottish Government funded public corporations and local authorities as well as including spending by the UK Government, UK public corporations and UK Government bodies such as Network Rail. The Infrastructure Investment Plan includes both programmes and projects. Programmes co-ordinate, direct and oversee the implementation of a set of related projects. Projects have defined start and end points (usually time-constrained and often constrained by funding or deliverables) and are undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives. Projects can be part of a programme but are not always. The Infrastructure Investment Plan - Project Pipeline is based on the 2015 Infrastructure Investment Plan and is updated on a six-monthly basis. It details projects with a capital value of £20 million or more where the Scottish Government has a lead role in procurement or funding. It also includes school and health projects being taken forward through the Scotland-wide 'hub' initiative which form part of the Scottish Government's current revenue funded £3.5 billion NPD/hub investment programme. A summary of the IIP Project Pipeline at March 2018 by funding type and sector is provided at Annex A. 2 In addition to publishing the IIP Project Pipeline, the Infrastructure Investment Plan - Major Capital Projects Progress Update is published on a six-monthly basis which provides information on projects with a capital value of £20 million or more which are at the Outline Business Case (or equivalent) approved stage or beyond. The latest versions of both the IIP Project Pipeline and the IIP Major Capital Projects Progress Update publications can be found by way of the following link: http://www.gov.scot/Topics/Government/Finance/18232/IIP Progress to March 2018 Major infrastructure improvements have been delivered and significant progress continues to be made.
