Original Note:
The 16bil figure comes from "Economic case for HS2" where the total cost for phase 1 was estimated -without rolling stock considerations- at 16bil. This is also not a budget. The 100bil figure is an approximation and comes from the cost of HS2 in full, not just phase 1. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/3650/hs2-economic-case-appraisal-update.pdf https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5e5f6d6d86650c5143547885/oakervee-review.pdf
