DELIVERING
THE PROJECT
• Traditional funding
method =
construction in 2040
or later
Value for Money
Study (VfM) –
Opt ions Ana lys i s
• Reviews current and future costs of project along with evaluation of current design (Value Engineering)
• Explores project delivery
options for construction of a new corridor
• Study should show which
delivery option is most cost-effective
