Sir David Higgins, when he became Chair of HS2 Ltd, was asked by the government to undertake a review on maximising the benefits of HS2 and managing costs. He has carried out a review of the cost estimates for constructing Phase One and confirmed they are right. Sir David’s report also proposes to deliver benefits, particularly benefits to the Midlands and the north, more quickly. The report sets out a clear proposal to accelerate construction so that the Crewe section of Phase Two would be completed by 2027, not 2033, and to build a new integrated hub station at Crewe. Sir David also makes recommendations about connectivity in the midlands and the north.
