I don't think we should be too surprised that HAL appears to have underestimated, probably by quite a lot, the cost of the M25 works. My point was that they weren't expecting to bear all the costs themselves, as evidenced by that Press Release I quoted from.
Nor does the statement quoted from the DfT rule out a government contribution, unless anyone is suggesting that the only M25 drivers who would benefit from the improvements are those bound to/from Heathrow, which clearly wouldn't be the case.
Anyway, it's all a bit academic now ...
