Purpose of HS2
• ‘The new north-south railway is a long term solution to a long term problem’
Secretary of State for Transport, Foreword, Strategic Case for HS2, November 2013
• ‘The aim of the HS2 project is to deliver hugely enhanced capacity and connectivity between our major conurbations’
• ‘… capacity will be freed up on the existing network, especially on the congested lines to the north of London, creating sufficient capacity for extra commuter and freight services’
High Speed Rail Investing in Britain’s Future – Decisions and Next Steps, January 2012,p.11

Why are we changing to the AP3 design?
1. Create an effective station within budgetary and
programme constraints
2. Support the wider development vision for the Euston area
3. Reduce the impact on existing rail services against a
background of continuing growth of over 5% p.a. on
longer distance commuting services
