Project start was delayed due to planning issues and COVID-19 restrictions. Work commenced January 2021 with a proposed completion date of March 2022 which was 
extended to May 2023 due to design changes required by Planning. There is still a significant amount of work to be undertaken to complete the project and the cost of this
work has been affected by Covid, Brexit and supply chain issues. The project overspent on budget last year and the project will  overspend  overall. Ongoing connection
issues with Scottish Water. Delay issues have been highlighted at a senior level within Scottish Water and communication seems to be improving. Expected completion
date is estimated to be November 2023. However, this is dependent on when water connection is made.
