Lessons for infrastructure from cyclone Gabrielle

Mohamed Abdulahi, Director in our Capital Practice, spoke to Alexandra Cain for the New Zealand Infrastructure Review about the pressing need to address the challenges posed by a changing climate through innovative infrastructure solutions.

As experts anticipate a surge in extreme climate events in the coming years, Mohamed emphasises the critical role of proactive adaptation. He advocates for the early implementation of infrastructure assets that can effectively withstand and respond to these challenges. His perspective highlights the cost-effectiveness of such an approach, urging both businesses and governments to prioritise climate-resilient infrastructure.
