What was the revised estimate for Brescia Metro's first section?

Brescia Metro is a driverless light-metro line linking the city's northern districts with the historic centre and the south-east. The operating route from Prealpino to Sant'Eufemia/Buffalora has 17 stations across 13.7 km; construction began in November 2003 and passenger service opened on 2 March 2013. For the first functional lot and its additional completion works, Italian government project records list a 2016 revised cost of EUR 775.8 million excluding VAT. That is an official programme estimate, not an independently audited final all-in expense; the early budget and the awarded construction contract covered different scopes and are listed separately below.
