One aspect I didn't see mentioned here so far which explains these mechanics beyond simple "the government is just incompetent" rethoric:
Unlike some (but not all) private institutions, regional and national government officials are incentivized to downplay the budget/runtime of major infrastructure projects as
1) the person is often not going to be around and accountable anymore once the true extend comes to light
2) telling the truth/adding proper buffers would make the project not being accepted by voters. So downplaying is the only way to get such projects through at all in many cases
