Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the cost of Crossrail 2 works required to deal with extra passengers at Euston Station resulting from High Speed 2.

The Government has provided £2 million for a funding and financing study which is looking at the potential overall costs of Crossrail 2, and whether at least 50 percent of those costs could be met by sources other than central Government. The study is due to report in the autumn. It will take into account in a high-level way the costs of building or upgrading stations along the route, including at Euston.
