NSW Premier scraps $810 million ANZ Stadium rebuild
almost 4 years in couriermail
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has scrapped the $810 million rebuild of Sydney’s Olympic stadium at Homebush as the state deals with the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic.
Instead Premier Berejiklian announced a new $3 billion fund for job-creating projects to produce an extra 20,000 positions.
The move would also fire up the economy, with $100 billion now being invested in the state’s infrastructure.
“This guaranteed pipeline of $100 billion will be our best chance of supporting the hundreds of thousands of people who have already lost their jobs in NSW,” Premier Berejiklian said.
