DUBLIN--()--The "Prospects for Public Infrastructure Projects, The Americas" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report provides a detailed analysis of the prospects for an acceleration in public infrastructure investment, including a listing of key projects.

Infrastructure investment in North America is expected accelerate in the coming years as both the US and Canada are looking to strengthen their post-pandemic economies and half carbon emissions in the next decades.

In the US, President Joe Biden's administration is expected to pass a multi-trillion infrastructure bill in the coming months, with a focus on transportation and green energy projects, while in Canada, the federal government continues to push forward its long-term infrastructure plan 'Investing in Canada Plan.' Last year, Trudeau government announced it will fast-track funding delivered via the federal Gas Tax Fund to help municipalities make progress with their infrastructure projects.

The federal government also announced earlier this year it will issue as much as C$50 billion in "green bonds" to finance infrastructure projects during the 2021-2022 fiscal year.

In Latin America, which is facing a new electoral cycle and an economy deeply devastated by a damaging new wave of COVID-19 infections and renewed lockdown measures, the prospects for governments to accelerate infrastructure works in the region this year remain weak.

Although higher commodity prices amid improving external condition are welcoming news, especially for resource-oriented exporters, public debt issues, supply chain disruptions , rising inflation, and growing political and social tensions due to soaring unemployment and poverty levels, will continue to hold back foreign and private investment in infrastructure in 2021.
