INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTENANCE OPPORTUNITIES

Why to Consider a New Career in Infrastructure Maintenance

AGING INFRASTRUCTURE, NEW OPPORTUNITIES,

Global infrastructure is aging; in fact, it’s at a ripe old age, much of it just about ready to kick the bucket. A large proportion of existing infrastructure, such as bridges, power grids, and sewer systems, were built shortly before or not long after the end of the Second World War. This means much of today’s key infrastructure is nearing the end of its 50 – 100 year lifespans, and will soon be, if not already, in desperate need of repair and replacement. While some innovative new infrastructure projects garner ample media attention and can make it seem like our built environment is always developing, the reality is that such projects are few and far between. This lack of new construction and concerning end-of-life performance of existing infrastructure aren’t necessarily all that great for the world, but there’s always a silver lining: the current state of the global infrastructure market means that there are bigger and better opportunities to get involved than ever before.

WHY INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTAINCE?
