Sydney Metro sites have returned to full construction capacity, where appropriate, and in line with NSW Government guidelines.
Safety is our top priority and a range of COVID-safe protocols have been implemented, such as restricting people movement on site and extra steps in place for easy contact tracing.
Rapid antigen testing has also been adopted by a number of our delivery partners as an added level of surveillance to help keep workers safe.
