Department for Transport written question – answered at on 11 September 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much has been spent to date on the electification of the Midland Mainline (a) in total, (b) London to Corby and (c) north of Kettering.
Approximately £380m has been spent to date on the upgrade of the Midland Main Line. This includes approximately £305m on the section of the route between London to Corby (on electrification work and related infrastructure upgrades), and approximately £30m on preliminary works north of Kettering, including the raising of bridges on that part of the route. This will allow any future upgrade to be carried out with as little disruption as possible. The remainder of this spend has been on infrastructure upgrades across the route, including designing and developing works at Market Harborough and in Derby.
