Expenditure to date on these projects has been committed over a number of years and by a number of organisations, including DfT, Network Rail, the ORR, local authorities, and the Train Operating Companies. In some cases, the expenditure is against multiple projects and is not easily broken down into the specific projects mentioned. We are therefore unable to answer the question in the format requested.
