This information sheet provides a list of infrastructure and transport-related Public Private Partnerships and privatisations in Australia since 1980. To the Bureau of Infrastructure Transport and Regional Economics' (BITRE) knowledge, this is the most comprehensive list on the subject to date.

One hundred and ninety seven economic infrastructure assets have been privatised or procured through PPPs since 1980. Several privatisations were undertaken in multiple stages, including, for example, the privatisations of Telstra and Qantas. Including all these stages takes the total list to 207 entries. The list excludes assets sold solely to state-owned enterprises, and non-sewage waste management services.
