Six months, from the beginning March 2026 to end of August 2026

What to expect

  • Delivery of abnormal loads will take place overnight.
  • Associated temporary traffic management will be in place, Monday to Thursday, 8.30pm to 5.30am (as required).

We will endeavour to complete the deliveries with the minimum of disruption for local residents.

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.
