Andrew Constance, director of transportation of new state, said that the delta epidemic in Sydney and the two-week construction ban on construction sites will increase the cost of major infrastructure projects in new state by about a $500 million.
He said that the blockade caused by the delta epidemic has caused “significant interference” to the state’s $108 billion infrastructure projects, which will inevitably affect the project cost.
Since then, the construction site has been operating at 50% capacity.
