ABSTRACT WestConnex is a 33 km, A$16.8bn motorway under construction in Sydney. It is promoted by the state government as an example of excellent “sustainable infrastructure”. We explore the use of sustainability discourse to explain how a motorway corporation, established by a state government committed to building infrastructure that could later be privatised, engaged with an organisation that redefined the notion of sustainability and then presented this definition and approach to justify their motorway construction practices as sustainable.

可持续性还是可持续的基础设施?使用可持续性话语建造高速公路

摘要 WestConnex 是悉尼正在建设中的一条 33 公里、耗资 168 亿澳元的高速公路。它被州政府推广为优秀的“可持续基础设施”的典范。我们探索使用可持续性话语来解释由州政府建立的高速公路公司如何致力于建设后来可以私有化的基础设施,与重新定义可持续性概念的组织合作,然后提出此定义和方法来证明其高速公路的合理性可持续的建筑实践。
