"None of the stations are yet finished"

Surprising word order aside, that is staggering. How could every one of
them be running late? Weren't they built by different contractors?

Yes. I suspect that once the opening was delayed, they cut back on
the
overtime working that would have been required for even the most complete
stations to meet the December 2018 target date. It's cheaper to complete
the stations at a more relaxed pace.

How much overtime weere they planning to work? The delay was finally
admitted 4 months before opening, which was 5 months ago

I rather suspect the myth of that timescale has been exploded by the new
boss.

- even if everyone was working double shifts they should have finished
by now...
