Another sub-contractor has launched legal proceedings against the NSW government over its delayed Sydney light rail project.
Queensland-based VAC Group is suing the Berejiklian government in the Federal Court for breach of contract, opposition leader Luke Foley told reporters in Sydney on Wednesday.
VAC is seeking more than $4 million, plus damages, from the government, which it has accused of misleading and deceptive conduct, according to the company's statement of claim.
The government is already fighting Spanish sub-contractor Acciona in the NSW Supreme Court, with the company demanding an extra $1.2 billion saying it was misled over the complexity of the project.
Mr Foley said the new court action was evidence the government could not manage its big infrastructure projects.

"This has to be the contender for one of the most disastrous infrastructure projects in NSW's history. It is killing businesses along the corridor and making us a laughing stock internationally," Mr Foley said in a statement.
