HS2 Phase 2b information events.

The government has published a list of meetings to explain HS2, I've got a local one on 27th or 28th January.
Anyone else attending their local meeting?


"We would like to invite you to an event about HS2 to find out more about the project and what it means for your local area".
On 15 November the Government announced the preferred route for the proposed High Speed Two (HS2) railway from Crewe to Manchester and West Midlands to Leeds – known as Phase 2b.

As part of this announcement, the Government launched two consultations on:

seven substantial changes being proposed to the route; and
the property compensation and assistance schemes being proposed for people affected by the plans.
The consultations will run until 9 March 2017.

We are holding a series of information events along the whole Phase 2b route to support the consultations. The table below provides details of these events.

We hope you will take this opportunity to talk to the project team about the proposed property schemes and the changes to the Phase 2b route from Crewe to Manchester and West Midlands to Leeds.

Our wonderful politicians have been talking about HS2 for longer than it took to build the original West Coast route from London to Glasgow ! (plus another 3000 miles or so elsewhere)

HS2 is scheduled to run up through Derbyshire along side the M1 motorway past Hardwick Hall.
I can't see it making that much difference to the visual aspect or the noise levels of the area, so our local meetings will no doubt be focusing on compensation plans for the displaced and the land owners.
