• Large Infrastructure Projects: A Review of the Quality of Demand Forecasts and Cost Estimations (2007, neutral): “It is possible that for a certain project a longer implementation period gives more opportunities for adaptations [see also Odeck (2004) below].”
• Cost Overruns in Large-scale Transportation Infrastructure Projects: Explanations and Their Theoretical Embeddedness (2010, background): “A more recent study on cost overruns by Odeck (2004) uses statistical analysis to derive the average cost overruns and to identify the factors that influence cost overruns.”
• Cost overruns in transportation infrastructure projects: Sowing the seeds for a probabilistic theory of causation (2016, neutral): “Reported cost overruns have been found to vary significantly between studies in various countries ranging, for example, from -11 to 106% (Pickrell, 1990), -59% to 183% (Odeck, 2004), and -12% and 70% (Love et al ., 2014).”
• Characteristics of Cost Overruns for Dutch Transport Infrastructure Projects and the Importance of the Decision to Build and Project Phases (2012, background): “In the literature on cost overruns (see table 1) hardly any attention is given to the project phases (with the exception of Odeck (2004)).”
