Infrastructure

As infrastructure projects become increasingly sophisticated, involving significant investment, public-private partnerships and evolving regulatory frameworks, organisations require strategic advice to successfully deliver critical assets and manage project risks.

Our Infrastructure practice advises infrastructure developers, investors, financiers, contractors, manufacturers, and operators on the legal, regulatory, and commercial issues associated with the development, financing, delivery, and operation of major infrastructure projects.

Our team advises on a broad range of infrastructure matters, including:
• Infrastructure project development and delivery
• Public-private partnerships (PPPs) and government infrastructure programs
• Project finance and infrastructure investment structures
• Transport infrastructure, including roads, rail, ports and airports
• Energy and utilities infrastructure
• Water and waste infrastructure projects
• Telecommunications and digital infrastructure
• Infrastructure procurement and tender processes
• Infrastructure concessions and long-term service arrangements
• Regulatory approvals, licensing, and compliance obligations
• Land acquisition, proprietary rights and property related infrastructure matters
• Infrastructure disputes, claims, and contract management
• Sustainability, environmental, and climate-related infrastructure requirements

We provide comprehensive legal support through:
• Advising on infrastructure projects from development through to completion and operation
• Structuring and negotiating project delivery and investment arrangements
• Drafting and reviewing construction, engineering, operation and maintenance agreements
• Supporting government procurement processes and major project tenders
• Conducting legal due diligence on infrastructure assets and transactions
• Advising on regulatory approvals, environmental obligations, and compliance requirements
• Advising on public-private partnership arrangements and government contracting models
• Advising on infrastructure asset acquisitions and disposals

Our Infrastructure practice, working closely with our Dispute Resolution practice, advises clients on mediation, arbitration, and litigation arising from infrastructure projects. This includes disputes involving challenges against State acts. We develop tailored strategies to mitigate the impact of disputes on our clients' investments and, where a challenge is successful, identify and implement alternative investment structures or routes to safeguard commercial objectives.

Our Infrastructure Team has experience in interacting with the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, the Ministry of Health and various Metropolitan Municipalities.
