For the access road -110 km of new road and upgrades to 85 km of existing roadway- government has allocated $2.3B this year. Originally the project was to cost just over $3B. The delays have pushed the final cost of the Amaila Falls road closer to the $4B mark.Dr. Roger LuncheonDespite breaking the contract into sections, government continued to be challenged with delays caused mainly by the rough terrain.

Sithe Global had said that IDB would have completed its financial due diligence on the project by next month, but government announced revised deadlines to later this year.Sithe Global, through its local operating company, Amaila Falls Hydro Inc., is hoping to have the project completed in three and a half years. It said it spent US$11M on third party environmental, technical and legal costs associated with the development and financing of the project.
