Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how much has been spent on HS2 to date; and how much they estimate the programme would cost to cancel immediately.
This question was answered on 10th February 2020
As at 31st March 2019, £7.4bn (excluding construction VAT) had been spent on the HS2 rail project. In August 2019 the Government announced an independent review of HS2 led by Douglas Oakervee. The review was asked to consider, among other things, whether and how to proceed with the project. The Government will make a decision shortly.
