Two massive construction disasters were:
1. Sidney Opera House
2. Berlin Brandenburg airport

Both were seriously late, and seriously over budget.

We’ve got two humongous current cock ups here in Oxford

First one is the Station redevelopment the Botley Road (a main route in to the city) was going to be closed for a year from April 2023, still closed and no date on when it will reopen

Second one is the Eynsham park and ride, I’m sure from memory it cost 30 million and they can’t connect it to the A40! so it’s sat there finished and completely useless.
