Reliable trains, more capacity
HS2 is Britain’s new high-speed railway. It’s the most significant addition to the rail network in over a century and lays the foundations for the future of our railways.
It will provide more reliable and faster journeys while relieving pressure on the congested southern end of the West Coast Main Line.
Right now, around 30,000 construction workers and over 3,500 UK businesses are laying the foundations for Britain’s future rail network.
