    changed between years. This means that the global and regional trends do not always involve

    a strict like-for-like comparison.

    Factor

    Disruption: the amount of disruption we

    have to deal with (e.g. roadworks,

    disruptions to water supply) while

    infrastructure is built or improved

    Legacy: the infrastructure that we pass

    on to future generations

    Resilience: how well our infrastructure

    stands up to challenges today and in the

    future (e.g. population increases and

    climate change)

    Environment: the impact our

    infrastructure has on our environment

    Investment: paying for the costs of

    improving and building new

    infrastructure now, to avoid having to pay

    more later

    Quality: making sure that infrastructure

    is as good as it possibly can be (e.g. in

    terms of speed or convenience of

    services)

    Ownership: whether the infrastructure is

    owned by the public sector – that is,

    Q. Which of the following factors do you think are

    the most important for [COUNTRY] to consider

    when putting together plans for infrastructure in

    the future? Please rank the following…

    most important

    Factor

    Disruption: the amount of disruption we

    have to deal with (e.g. roadworks,

    disruptions to water supply) while

    infrastructure is built or improved

    Legacy: the infrastructure that we pass

    on to future generations

    Resilience: how well our infrastructure

    stands up to challenges today and in the

    future (e.g. population increases and

    climate change)

    Environment: the impact our

    infrastructure has on our environment

    Investment: paying for the costs of

    improving and building new

    infrastructure now, to avoid having to pay

    more later

    Quality: making sure that infrastructure

    is as good as it possibly can be (e.g. in

    terms of speed or convenience of

    services)

    Ownership: whether the infrastructure is

    owned by the public sector – that is,

    national or local government or some

    other public sector body – or private

    businesses

    As a country we are not doing enough to meet our

    [COUNTRY] has a poor record at getting national

    infrastructure, we mean

    things we rely on like

    road, rail and air

    networks, utilities such

    as energy and water,

    and broadband and

    By local area we mean

    the area within 15-20

    minutes’ walk from

    where you live.

    Spain*, Sweden, Turkey and the United States of America* * denotes 1,000+ sample size

    ▪ Participants were adults aged 18-64 in the US and Canada, and adults aged 16-64 in all other countries.

    ▪ Results may not sum to 100% and combinations to their constituent %s (e.g. very/fairly satisfied) due to computer rounding.

    ▪ The 2016-2019 surveys used the same methodology, but the profile of participating countries changed. This means that the

    global trend does not always involve a like-for-like comparison. In 2018, Romania and Czech Republic were included, China

    wasn’t. This year, Romania and Czech Republic were not included, but some questions were fielded in China.

    ▪ A selection of trends is included. Further information is available:

    • The ‘Nimby’ Index has been generated as

    part of the fourth Global Infrastructure

    Index conducted with the support of the

    Global Infrastructure Investor Association.

    • The survey was conducted in 28 countries

    around the world, via the Ipsos Online Panel

    system. It involved 19,516 participants,

    between 26 July–9 August 2019. The

    countries were:

    Argentina, Australia*, Belgium, Brazil,

    Canada*, Chile, China*, Colombia, France*,

    Germany*, Great Britain*, Hungary, India*,

    Italy*, Japan*, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Poland,

    Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South

    Korea, Serbia, Spain*, Sweden, Turkey and

    the United States of America*

    * denotes 1,000+ sample size

    • Participants were adults aged 18-64 in the

    US and Canada, 18-65 and adults aged 16-

    64 in all other countries.

    • The Index is based on the sum of support

    across Q7 which included six parts (and a

    mix of positive and negative ‘conditions’ or

    impacts)

    Q7. Still thinking about building new

    infrastructure in your local area, to

    what extent would you support or

    oppose it being built there if…?

    A) …it meant building on

    ‘greenfield’ i.e. land that had not

    previously been built on

    B) …it helped to improve the local

    economy

    C) ….it created jobs by attracting

    people and businesses to the area

    D) …it was environmentally-friendly

    overall

    E) …it meant young people and

    families could stay

    F) …it meant an increase in traffic

    and congestion during building

    • These questions followed several relating to

    infrastructure (covering satisfaction and

    priorities). These presented definitions of

    infrastructure:

    “…by infrastructure, we mean things

    we rely on like road, rail and air

    networks, utilities such as energy and

    water, and broadband and other

    communications.”

    • The Index runs from 1 to 100 based on

    participants’ positivity towards building new

    infrastructure, with the maximum value of

    100 set at Serbia which scored the highest

    (and Japan, at 1, the lowest). The Index thus

    shows the relative ‘nimbyism’ between

    countries.

    • The segmentation analysis was conducted

    using hierarchical clustering.
