42. Mr. Rowe

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what is his estimate of the cost per projected passenger journey of the channel tunnel rail link. [54372]

My Department has estimated that, in overall terms, taking account of travel and regeneration benefits, the new Channel Tunnel Rail Link deal provides good value for the taxpayer.
