This envelope also makes provision for a property consultation package which goes beyond statutory requirements.</p><p>The Government expects the railway to be delivered for less than this long-term envelope, and the Secretary of State for Transport has set HS2 Ltd a lower ‘target price' of £17.16 billion to deliver Phase 1.
