Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent estimate he has made of the total cost of the HS2 programme.
This question was answered on 18th May 2021
The full HS2 network is estimated to cost between £72-£98Bn (2019 prices). The numbers include contingency to accommodate unforeseeable cost pressures which may emerge during construction, as is to be expected with all major infrastructure projects. More information on cost can be found in the 6-monthly parliamentary reports.
