Could not find module "@angular-devkit/build-angular"

After updating to Angular 6.0.1, I get the following error on ng serve:

Could not find module "@angular-devkit/build-angular" from "/home/Projects/myProjectName".
Error: Could not find module "@angular-devkit/build-angular" from "/home/Projects/myProjectName".
    at Object.resolve (/home/Projects/myProjectName/node_modules/@angular-devkit/core/node/resolve.js:141:11)
    at Observable.rxjs_1.Observable [as _subscribe] (/home/Projects/myProjectName/node_modules/@angular-devkit/architect/src/architect.js:132:40)

ng update says everything is in order. Deleting node_modules folder and a fresh npm install install did not help either.

My project is based on ng2-admin(Angular4 version). Here is my package.json dependecies:

Install @angular-devkit/build-angular as dev dependency. This package is newly introduced in Angular 6.0

npm install --save-dev @angular-devkit/build-angular

or,

yarn add @angular-devkit/build-angular --dev
