Meanwhile,late night negotiations between The Star and the government have resulted in the casino being allowed to open from tomorrow,with more than 500 people able to spread across the venue's multiple outlets.
Ms Berejiklian said the new $3 billion fund would increase the state's total infrastructure pipeline to $100 billion and inject up to 20,000 extra jobs into the state's workforce.
"This guaranteed pipeline of $100 billion will be our best chance of supporting the hundreds of thousands of people who have already lost their jobs in NSW,"she said."We will[also] be looking for opportunities to fast-track projects to provide jobs as early as we can."
The government did not provide examples of projects to be funded by the new $3 billion fund.
Ms Berejiklian had originally wanted to knock down and rebuild ANZ Stadium but instead went to the election promising to refurbish the 85,000 seat oval venue into a 70,000 seat rectangular one. The rebuild of Allianz Stadium at Moore Park is already underway and remains ongoing.
The decision,taken by the Premier and her core leadership group,wards off internal division over what projects to jettison given budget constraints created by the pandemic.
