One question, no Googling !!

What will, according to a bloke who claims to know, rebalance the economy by connecting eight out of our 10 biggest cities, deliver a new ‘green corridor’ made up of woodland, wildlife habitats and amenity facilities, designed to blend into the landscape and leave a lasting legacy of high quality green spaces ?

Spotted, Art. That was an HS2 spokesman.

Sounds really plausible, doesn't it ?

Surely the money would be better used to revamp/update the current system. I hear train fares are going up again yet the current services don’t seem to be improving for commuters.

The chairman of HS2 is facing the sack less than five months after his appointment because of fears that costs are spiralling out of control.

Sir Terry Morgan is also set to be removed as the chairman of Crossrail, the ambitious line linking east and west London, relieving him of leadership of two of the UK’s highest-profile infrastructure projects, according to a report.

The move would represent an embarrassing setback for the transport secretary, Chris Grayling.

Theresa May was expected to move against Morgan, who was described as “world-class” by Grayling when he appointed him in July to HS2, the planned high-speed rail link between London and Birmingham. A source said that Morgan was expected to leave both posts within weeks.


Great appointment there by 'Failing Grayling'. Anyone surprised to see costs spiralling?
