FOI request detail

Crossrail future projections

Request ID: FOI-2889-1819
Date published: 06 February 2019

You asked

I am currently undertaking an evaluation of the Crossrail project as part of an assessment for my university course. In this project, I need to assess Crossrail’s future performance, using breakeven analysis and other financial ratios, however I cannot seem to find any information regarding revenue from ticket sales on the service, making it hard to financially analyse the project. Please could you provide me with future projections so I can calculate the time it will take to cover the investment as well as financial ratios linked to the information.
