Abstract
Whether one sees a crisis in urban infrastructure finance depends more on theoretical perspective than empirical evidence. Urban infrastructure issues in Australia differ in emphasis from those in North America and Asia but the finance options are basically the same. Reform in Australia is best directed at state capital budgeting, a national infrastructure fund, clearer accountabilities for provision, user fees reflecting real cuts and experimentation with joint public-private provision.Keywords
