Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has told a Transport Select Committee that the HS2 project will be vital for enabling people to meet each other unless teleportation becomes a reality.
Bailiffs from HS2 have started to evict protesters from Euston Square Gardens after they dug tunnels and set up a makeshift camp in opposition to the high speed rail project.
Following on from the government’s green light for construction, HS2 have begun the search for contractors to deliver the high voltage power supply systems.
HS2’s west-London super hub, Old Oak Common, has had its planning application approved by the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation yesterday.
