HS2 high-speed rail

HS2 is Britain's new high speed railway, linking London with Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. Work on the £32 billion project starts in 2017 and is scheduled to finish in 2032. The 250mph route will slash journey times, boost regional business and ease overcrowding with supporters claiming it will close the North-South divide.
