Closed petition Scrap HS2. Spend the money on existing infrastructure, trains and rolling stock
Closed on
HS2 benefits very few people. It is already £200m over budget. The Sheffield connection is cancelled and route has changed. The money is better spent on improving existing routes and reinstating some of the old routes to increase access to a greater proportion of the population.
