The total spend on the Metro North project until the end of 2014 was €166m. €67m of this expenditure can be considered as lasting value expenditure that is still required for the current MetroLink project. Of the other €99m, approximately €28m was related to Railway Procurement Agency (RPA) staff and associated expense costs.

At the end of June 2023, a total of circa €121m has been invested in MetroLink.
