Extension of ongoing works from 4 March 2026 for up to 2 years.

We will be continuing the operation of a controlled crossing on B4118 Birmingham Road, Water Orton for our haul road. The haul roads allow for the movement of construction materials, construction machinery and/or construction staff around work sites.

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.
