Construction of the Montego Bay Bypass in St James has been pushed back to 2022 instead of next year, the National Road Operating and Constructing Company (NROCC) has said.
He was addressing a virtual Town Hall, hosted by the National Environment and Planning Agency (NEPA) and NROCC on Tuesday.
"A lot of the budgets have been reduced and that has also affected the timing of our project start time," Anderson said.
The project will be for 36 months, subject to environmental approval by NEPA.
The Montego Bay Bypass will be a 15-kilometre toll road stretching from the Rose Hall main road to the Bogue Highway.
