However, a range of sensitivities were explored in detail in the January 2022 HS2 Phase 2b Western Leg Strategic Outline Business Case. Three sensitivities were undertaken which assess three possible scenarios. These scenarios are not predictions, but instead explore a range of possible impacts of the pandemic on future rail demand. For business and commuter demand, these ranged from 5% reduction in the low-impact sensitivity to a 47% reduction in the high-impact sensitivity.</li></ol><p> </p><ol start="2"><li>Wider economic benefits which include productivity benefits have been explored in the January 2022 HS2 Phase 2b Western Leg Strategic Outline Business Case. The productivity benefits are assumed to arise from reduced journey times, agglomeration benefits and from people and businesses moving to realise productivity benefits. These estimates were brought together alongside a wide range of sensitivity tests to provide a value for money assessment.</li></ol> answering member printed Baroness Vere of Norbiton question first answered 03/11/2022 13:50:14 answering member 4580 label Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton
