Transport and utility facilities

Explanation:
rather than organisations, I think....It's actually the construction work they are writing about, unless I totally miss the point.

transport and service supply infrastructure

Explanation:
I believe Versorgungseinrichtungen refers to the supply infrastructure for electricity, gas, water etc. You may wish to use "utility" (especially if you are in the U.S. of A.), althouigh I (being a Brit) prefer service/services.
Einrichtungen means roads and the necessary associated works ("Verkehr"), plus underground pipes, cables etc.
