NSW government challenges court ruling to pay damages for light rail construction delays.

The NSW government is challenging a court judgement that ordered them to pay damages to two businesses affected by delays in Sydney's light rail construction. In July 2023, Justice Richard Cavanagh ruled that businesses along the construction route should be compensated due to excessive delays causing nuisance. The government is now seeking to overturn this decision in the Court of Appeal, as it has already led to further claims by other businesses.
