Global construction set for best year since 2007

摘要

International construction markets are expected to enjoy their best year since the financial crisis in 2014, according to a new report by Turner & Townsend, writes Iain Withers. The global consultant's International Construction Cost Survey 2013 report analysed prospects for 23 countries' construction markets and determined 13 of these will see more construction projects start in 2014 than in the previous year. It was the first year since 2008 that the majority of countries were projected to develop more rather than less in the coming 12 months, according to Turner & Townsend (T&T).
