The #HS2 reset delayed for more months to a vague "before the summer recess" . Note this is not a release to the public. The government will likely sit on on it for even longer while it approves (disputes?) the figures. Typical MO this, hide bad news and ramp up the spending.

@Castafi0re @oxfordlitfest @frances_cutler @HS2theTruth @JohnSensible @WTM_HS2 @stophs2 Well the ex chairman Allan Cook stated on Panorama and BBC radio that he told rail minister @Nus_Ghani that HS2 was delayed by 3 years & £7bn over budget in May 2019 and she did not tell parliament, those facts have been freely available public since 2021. Just saying....

Reducing the speed of #HS2 now is an insult.
A slower speed line could have avoided ancient Woodlands, it could have avoided more communities.
Now we have needless destruction baked in.

@HS2ltd @transportgovuk #HS2 route pushed through Parliament with 'speed' central to the business case. Now, it is clear that the justification to dig up the Chilterns (AONB) National Landscape was flawed (to put it politely). IT MATTERS!!! 🦔🌳🦉

HS2 reset was due in late 2025, now might see it in May.
Deja vu of 2019 when Cook Stocktake was carefully delayed until phase 2a past & @Nus_Ghani lied to parliament at least 5 times

The contractors did not know the risks because neither HS2 nor DfT did not appreciate & did not want to know the many risks of this mad project which were there from the start. Bad management just made it far worse.

Wild said reset would be complete late 2025. Now mid March 2026 & in 'last ditch talks' so basically contractors told HS2 Ltd to piss off.
If no renegotiation then Byngs estimates of £145bn still stands
Only way to save is reduce scope- no Euston, no WCML link

So #HS2 will end in a field & cause congestion issues on the WCML, exactly what it was meant to relieve. Fantastic. Oh and they ruined the ChilternsAONB and people along the route's lives.
