Infrastructure <br />Infrastructure assets are long-lived capital assets that normally are stationary in nature and <br />normally can be preserved for a significantly greater number of years than most capital <br />assets (i.e. roads, bridges, tunnels, drainage systems, water and sewer systems, dams, <br />and lighting systems). As a general rule, the cost of buildings associated with infrastructure <br />should be reported separately as buildings rather than as part of the cost of the <br />infrastructure. The exception to this rule is buildings that are purely ancillary to a network or <br />subsystem of infrastructure (e.g., road maintenance structures such as shops and garages <br />associated with a highway system and water pumping stations associated with water <br />systems). <br />Examples of infrastructure assets include: <br />• Roads, streets, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks <br />• Bridges <br />• Water and sanitary sewer systems <br />• Drainage and storm water systems <br />• Street light systems <br />• Signage <br />
