What is Minor Infrastructure?
Minor infrastructure projects are smaller-scale works that support the safe and efficient operation of larger facilities. They typically involve shorter durations, lower values, and more focused scopes than major civil engineering projects, but they are no less important.
These works often include site preparation, small-scale road or groundwork, drainage, utilities, and refurbishments. They are essential for maintaining safe, compliant, and operational environments. For project managers and facilities teams, minor infrastructure provides the flexibility to address urgent needs or carry out upgrades without major disruption.
