Yes, the estimate has always been for the entire length of the Cambridge section. This is the first time I've seen options that consider not doing the entire Cambridge route (which would be probably the worst option). FWIW, I don't recall if the 1.2b was the estimate for the new Cambridge route that involved all those compromises to try to placate unplacatable but loud and angry NIMBYs who don't want any LRT and are entirely unwilling to compromise on that.

Right. This was my question ... the full length, but is it the same route as previously? If not, are there additional construction and/or expropriation costs that would not have applied to the former route?
