    Sustainable infrastructure assessments can be used by the construction industry to develop sustainable infrastructure projects and achieve successful construction projects. However, the effect of sustainable infrastructure assessments on the success of construction projects has not been examined in previous studies, based on the authors' knowledge; therefore, this study examined this effect. A questionnaire was used to collect data on the importance of a range of criteria used to evaluate sustainable infrastructure assessments and construction project success. The data were then analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) to validate a structural model used to determine the effect of sustainable infrastructure assessments. The final SEM model shows the following: (1) sustainable infrastructure assessments can be described by eight criteria (i.e., environmental impacts on surrounding areas, transport, community, energy and water, location, project management, waste management, and materials and resources); (2) construction project success can be described by six criteria (i.e., environment, quality, safety, time, cost, and client satisfaction); and (3) sustainable infrastructure assessments directly affect construction project success (regression weight of 0.83). The results of this research inform how sustainable infrastructure assessments affect construction project success and could be used as a guideline for developing sustainable infrastructure projects.
