How much did the extension of Helsinki — West Metro — West Metro phase 2 cost?

The Matinkyla-Kivenlahti section, phase two of the Helsinki West Metro (Lansimetro) in Espoo, Finland, extends the metro by 7 km of rail line and five stations with an underground depot, and was opened to the public on 3 December 2022, earlier than planned. Lansimetro Oy's financial page gives total costs of 1,070 million euros as the final cost estimate, and its release of 29 March 2023 says the project came in about 100 million euros under the 1,159 million estimate of the adjusted project plan.
