Responding to the start of tunnelling between the Old Oak Common and Euston HS2 sites, Ed Richardson, Transport Programme Director at BusinessLDN, said:
‘‘The start of tunnelling between Old Oak Common and Euston is a significant milestone and a timely reminder of HS2’s potential to unlock growth by boosting capacity and connectivity across the UK.
“To ensure the project is kept on track, it is now vital that this progress is followed by the timely publication of the comprehensive reset of the HS2 programme, including a clear and credible plan for Euston as the London terminus.”
