How much does IND Crosstown Line cost?

The IND Crosstown Line is the New York City Subway line of the G service between Court Square in Queens and Hoyt-Schermerhorn Streets in Brooklyn, 13 stations over about 11.4 km, opened in sections from 19 August 1933 and connected to the Culver Line on 1 July 1937. Wikipedia says the MTA's February 2022 budget and financial plan estimated the cost of installing communications-based train control on the line at 556.4 million dollars, and that in December 2022 the MTA announced a 368 million dollar design-build contract for Crosstown Partners, a joint venture of Thales Group and TC Electric, covering also part of the Culver Line.
