Why are we investing in HS2?
HS2 and High Speed North will turbo-charge rail’s role in levelling up Britain’s economy and getting the nation to net zero carbon emissions. Taken together, these vital investments will improve today’s railway and, through seamless integration with the existing tracks, build a reimagined rail network for the next 100 years.
High Speed North will increase capacity and improve reliability while bringing the north of England closer together and build on the roll out of new trains across the region. HS2 will mean more frequent local services on existing lines, less road congestion with more freight going by rail and faster, and more punctual journeys between many parts of the country.
