*<strong>The</strong>se cost estimates vary in accuracy from firm prices through detailed design estimates to indicative<br />

feasibility assessments.<strong>The</strong> cost of each scheme will be refined as it is progressed.Total enhancement spend<br />

is based on a top-down estimate of the investment required to deliver 30% growth in passenger miles and<br />

a tripling of freight traffic by 2008/09.<strong>The</strong> schemes identified are those currently envisaged to deliver the<br />

majority of that growth.However, we would not expect the inclusion or exclusion of a specific scheme to<br />

affect the total enhancement required.<br />
