HS2 in Birmingham

Birmingham sits at the heart of the new high-speed railway, with Birmingham Curzon Street Station providing direct high-speed connections to London and the North.

Leaving Curzon Street, the railway crosses the city on viaducts before reaching Washwood Heath, the site of new high-speed rail network rolling stock maintenance depot and network control centre.
