question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the (a) highest, (b) lowest and (c) median Cost Benefit Ratio was for rail upgrade projects approved under the Rail Network Enhancements Pipeline.
tabling member constituency	North West Norfolk
tabling member printed	James Wild
uin	77623
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/11/2022 answer text <p>The Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) is only one element of the economic case we consider, and the economic case is itself one of 5 dimensions to be considered. Some of our projects do not have estimated BCRs.</p><p>The highest core BCR within the RNEP is “financially positive”. This occurs when the revenues generated from an investment outweigh the upfront capital costs and the ongoing operating costs. The lowest core BCR we have recorded is from the bottom end of a range of potential options for a project at an early stage of development and is 0.4.</p><p>The median BCR in our available dataset is 1.91, however, given the range of maturity, sensitivities and assumptions involved in BCRs and the fact that this is one element of one case in the business cases for enhancements projects, this median should not be interpreted as meaningfully representative of the value of rail enhancements or the portfolio.</p> answering member constituency Bexhill and Battle answering member printed Huw Merriman question first answered 09/11/2022 11:17:54 answering member 4442 label Biography information for Huw Merriman
