description Delays can be defined as the late completion of work compared to the planned schedule or contract schedule. It will effect due to the construction such as time overrun and cost overrun. But the delay can be minimizing if the cause was identified. The objective of this study was to identify the main causes, the effects, and methods of minimizing infrastructure project delays. This study was carried out based on the literature review and a questionnaire survey. A total of six groups were contributed to the main cause of construction delays, six factors that effects delays and six methods of minimizing infrastructure project delays were identified based on literature review. A questionnaire survey was distributed to the randomly respondent in Malaysia. The target respondent of question is management team include site supervisor, assistant engineer, engineer civil, consultants and contractors. The top three most important factors that contributed to the main causes of delays were improper planning and poor site management, low productivity of labors and equipment, and delay in preparing and approving document by the consultant during construction.
