AUKUS subs project to drive $40b logistics, housing boom: Report Source: AFR Between $35 billion and $40 billion of warehouses, apartments, offices, shops and hotels will be needed around Port Adelaide and south-west Perth over the coming years to support the construction and operation of the AUKUS nuclear submarines, according to analysis by CBRE. The commercial real estate firm is forecasting about 1 million square metres of warehouses will be required as part of the infrastructure to support the enormous defence project. The project initially will be centred on the Osborne Naval Shipyard near Port Adelaide during the submarine construction phase. It will move to the HMAS Stirling naval base on Garden Island, just south of Fremantle, when the vessels are operational. In addition to offices, shops, hotels and childcare, almost 24,500 residential units would be required to be built nearby over the following six years to provide housing for the thousands of workers and their families who will descend on the two bases to build, operate and maintain the submarines, CBRE said. The bases will be close to big population centres – unlike similar facilities in Europe and the United States – and CBRE’s Pacific head of research, Sameer Chopra, likened their impact on local real estate and infrastructure demand to that of the Brisbane Olympics and Sydney Metro. “It’s going to be a cracker,” Mr Chopra told The Australian Financial Review. According to CBRE’s Unearthing Real Estate Opportunities from AUKUS report, construction of nuclear submarines at Osborne Naval Shipyard is expected to create demand for an additional 850,000 square metres of logistics space (the equivalent of 10 years of historical supply). “Manufacturing of this type is very logistics intensive, creating a number of large-scale opportunities to redevelop real estate to support the infrastructure associated with AUKUS,” Mr Chopra said. Much of the demand for warehouse and office space is likely to come from specialist contractors such as the Australian Submarine Corporation and global aerospace and defence companies such as BAE Systems and General Dynamics. About 4000 workers are expected to be employed to build the shipyard and a further 5500 people will be employed to construct the submarines, which are due to be delivered to the Royal Australian Navy in the early 2040s. Beneficiaries of this real estate boom are likely to include Melbourne-based real estate investment house Quintessential, which owns the Port Adelaide Distribution Centre, and private development giant Walker Corp, which is developing the Vicinity Industrial Base 15 minutes’ north of Port Adelaide and the Riverlea residential estate in the north. https://lnkd.in/gKRnC4Qf #AUKUS

Ship Ahoy! Osborne Naval Shipyard Expansion: Impact on Residential Zones and Real Estate Opportunities The Osborne Naval Shipyard, located in South Australia, has seen significant expansion due to the growing demand for naval shipbuilding projects, such as the construction of submarines and frigates. This development is set to have a substantial effect on surrounding residential zones, contributing to increased economic activity, population growth, and shifts in land use. Key Impacts on Residential Zones Increased Demand for Housing: The shipyard's growth will likely attract a larger workforce, contractors, and support services, creating a surge in housing demand in nearby suburbs. Many workers may prefer accommodation close to the shipyard, driving this demand. Rising Property Values: As demand for housing rises, property values in surrounding areas are expected to increase. While this benefits homeowners, it may also present affordability challenges for low-income residents. Infrastructure Strain: Population growth and increased economic activity could strain local infrastructure, such as roads, public transport, and utilities. This may prompt local governments to invest in infrastructure improvements to support the growing population. Potential Rezoning: As the region faces higher housing demand, rezoning underutilized or industrial areas for residential purposes may become a consideration. Local councils could allow for higher-density housing or the development of new residential estates to meet workforce needs. Noise and Environmental Concerns: The proximity to the shipyard may raise concerns about noise, traffic, and environmental impacts. These concerns could lead to stricter regulations and the creation of buffers between industrial and residential zones. Rezoning Opportunities The Port Adelaide Enfield Local Council has demonstrated a proactive approach to rezoning considerations to address population growth. While no formal rezoning plans have been confirmed, residential zoning expansions may support workforce housing needs. Urban planning in the area will need to balance economic development with preserving residents' quality of life, ensuring long-term sustainability and infrastructure readiness. Real Estate Insights With the Osborne Naval Shipyard's expansion creating significant housing demand, opportunities for acquiring sites with potential for residential density increases are on the rise. I have had discussions with several interested parties that clearly is highlighting a growing focused residential developments and underutilized community shopping strips along the peninsula. This indicates that the region is poised for further growth, offering prime real estate investment opportunities.

When will the construction of the bridge connecting District 1 and District 7, costing nearly VND 4,000 billion, commence? The Nguyen Khoai bridge project was approved by the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Council for investment since 2016, with a total investment of VND 1,250 billion. However, it has not been implemented for a long time. At the end of 2023, the project was adjusted by the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Council, with the total capital increased to over VND 3,725 billion due to changes in scale. Recently, the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee has submitted a proposal to the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Council regarding the list of land withdrawal projects for socio-economic development. The land area of the Nguyen Khoai bridge project to be withdrawn is about 1.7 hectares through 3 districts including District 1, District 4, and District 7. The land withdrawal period is from now until the end of 2024. Nguyen Khoai bridge rendering The Nguyen Khoai bridge is nearly 5km long. Of which, the bridge section has a total length of nearly 2.5km, width ranging from 6.5m to 25.5m, and the road section is over 2.3km long, width ranging from 26.5m to 61.5m, allowing continuous traffic from District 7 to District 1, and vice versa. The construction starts from D1 Road (connecting Saigon University with Nguyen Van Linh Street and Him Lam Residential Area, District 7), then the main bridge section crosses the Te Canal in the air along Nguyen Khoai Street. The bridge continues to cross the Ben Nghe creek and connects to Vo Van Kiet Street. The bridge has 2 branches connecting Tran Xuan Soan Street (District 7), 2 branches connecting Ton That Thuyet Street (District 4), and 4 branches connecting Vo Van Kiet Street (District 1). Nguyen Khoai bridge rendering According to the Project Management Board of the city’s transportation investment projects – the project owner, the project is currently being developed, reviewed, and approved for adjustment feasibility study reports. After the land withdrawal plan is approved, the project will carry out compensation, support and resettlement, and relocation of technical infrastructure. It is expected to commence at the end of 2024. The project will be tested and put into operation in 2027. The Nguyen Khoai bridge opens a new road axis from the South to the center of Ho Chi Minh City, reducing traffic pressure on Khanh Hoi – Te Canal bridge – Nguyen Huu Tho, Nguyen Van Cu – Duong Ba Trac – Road 9A, Nguyen Tat Thanh Road, etc. Currently, these routes are frequently congested not only during peak hours but also during off-peak hours.

𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗛𝗼𝘁𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 Analysis conducted by Barbour ABI and the Construction Products Association (CPA) has revealed that construction spending is seeing a geographic shift as the industry recovers following the post-pandemic period and the infamous Liz Truss mini-budget. Comparing ONS figures from 2022 with contract awards data from 2023, researchers discovered spending shifting away from traditional #construction powerhouses in London and the Southeast, with new hotspots in construction activity appearing all over Great Britain. Barbour ABI’s head of business and client analytics, Ed Griffiths said, “There are clear hotspots for upcoming construction activity over the next 6-24 months, with hotspots outnumbering coldspots, where activity has gone down, by almost three-to-one overall and six-to-one for #infrastructure. “Encouragingly, regions with hotspots were spread across Great Britain and hotspots outnumbered coldspots in all regions of Great Britain.” London and the Southeast, which have seen the highest spending on construction in the UK, saw contract awards reduce by 18.5% and 17.6% respectively – wiping out gains made in 2022. Westminster, traditionally responsible for one of London’s biggest spending shares, took a 20% hit along with Berkshire (39%) and West Surrey (32%) in the Southeast. Meanwhile, Manchester was in the top 10 largest regions in terms of the value of contracts awarded in 2023. However, this was 18% lower than a year earlier.
