Truro Bypass

101 Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (30 August 2023). In reference to Budget Paper 4, Vol.3, page 120—$40 million was budgeted for the Truro Bypass in the 2022-23 financial year but only $5 million has been spent. What is the reason for this?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining):

The Department for Infrastructure and Transport advises that due to the complexity of the project additional time was required to complete design works, community consultation and seek environmental approvals.
