​AUSTIN – The city’s shelter-in-place order has banned most construction temporarily. 

The construction of public works projects, affordable housing, housing for the homeless, and social services buildings, as well as “other construction that supports essential uses, including essential businesses, government functions, or critical infrastructure,” are exempt. 

The city posted a guidance document clarifying that commercial and residential construction were generally prohibited under the new regulations except in the very limited situations where the construction involves one of the specific types of essential and critical facilities. 

Construction is continuing in other cities with shelter-in-place orders​​​.
