This time extension will be to recover the work processes that have been delayed and will be affected by the socio-economic impacts of COVID19.

The Project Board should return to the approach to this expected Metro Bus outcome and formulate a plan consistent with the main objective of the project to continue as far as the actual budget and counterpart allow.
