Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment he has made of the potential contribution of Crossrail 2 to national economic growth.
This question was answered on 30th October 2017
The Government is considering the Crossrail 2 Strategic Outline Business Case, submitted by Transport for London, to determine whether the proposed scheme delivers value for money to the UK taxpayer.
The approach is consistent with the HM Treasury Green Book guidance and focusses on the use of cost benefit (welfare) analysis to determine value for money. This captures the expected economic, environmental and social impacts of the scheme on the UK.
