Insights into the Australian Construction Industry
Australia's economy has bounced back from the COVID-19 recession, growing by a much-better-than-expected 1.1 per cent over the past year. But not only is Australia's economic output bigger than it was before the national lockdown, it also recovered from the previous quarter's bushfire and early pandemic-driven decline, and is 0.8 per cent larger than its previous peak.

We anticipate that the ongoing economic recovery will continue in 2021 with positive signs Australia’s economy will emerge strongly from the pandemic. We have seen encouraging future signs in the mixed use, commercial and infrastructure sectors.
Further lockdowns may impact the economic recovery. Retail and tourism etc. are still hit hard and are yet to recover from COVID-19, as workers are remaining at home again due to recent outbreaks and lockdowns in Melbourne and Sydney.
