What we are doing

The construction of the ventilation shaft at Chalfont St Peter, Buckinghamshire has now been completed. We will now remove the Temporary Access Road (TAR) which we used to reroute our HGVs and deliveries away from village roads via the A413 Amersham Road.

Temporary office units will be installed in March, and removal of the road surface and replacement of earthworks and landscaping will follow in April lasting until late autumn 2026.

Location
Chalfont St Peter ventilation shaft site, Chesham Lane, Chalfont St Peter, Buckinghamshire

Duration
March 2026 to October 2026.

What to expect

  • Increased movement of earthmoving vehicles in and around the compound and the fields adjacent to the site.
  • HGVs, excavators, and operatives working on the TAR and using the junction with the A413 in the day.

HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
