After travelling in countries such as Spain and France, the UK's rail infrastructure looks ancient. High speed rail must happen, and it needs to go beyond HS2. In Spain, the country would fall apart without it's AVE network.

@YN-io6kj 3 года назад

The problem in the uk for these projects aren't money or the ability to do them. Theres a reason our rail infrastructure looks so ancient and its done on purpose. Many people who live outside the cities do not want any change and want the countryside left untouched. Making rail expansion very difficult and costly as you litterally have to buy out entire communities.

@shoaiblatif783 3 года назад

HS2 is absolutely brilliant for growth in the UK. However, I think overall, it is a poor waste of money. I used to intern at HS2 HQ in Birmingham a few years back. The project will definitely go over budget and over time. For example, national rail and HS2 are having problems in Crewe because the signalling is different for both trains. This will cost a lot of money but one company has to pay for it. The whole situation is just too bureaucratic. I think that money for HS2 should be invested in better rolling stock, electrifying the whole railway network and re-nationialising the railway. This would be a far better outcome for everyone as it will drive prices down and more people can use the railway system. Just my two-cents.

True, however it is really difficult to justify large infrastructure projects in the Celtic fringes just due to the economics of it these areas are highly mountainous and underpopulated, England alone accounts for over 80% of the population and development there is where spending provides the most efficient gains, Wales and Scotland meanwhile have pretty adequate infrastructure networks given their population sizes whilst you cant say the same for most of England, especially the north.

Infrastructure was what I advised my friend in Indonesia to run on when he asked early in 2014 if he should run for President & which party. I answered "yes", "PDI-P" & stated investors will not come if their products are going to take many hours to go a relatively short distance, tourists won't come if they can't get around easily, poverty won't be reduced if investors don't boost the economic growth with real full-time jobs. Everything must be in place first, to attract the right investors. He followed my advice, but it is a pity the only way to get the funding was to allow China to play a major role in the MRT, LRT & VFT Rail Projects, including new rolling stock from Local Company INKA & diesel Locomotives from Switzerland & USA. There are also the many motorway projects throughout Indonesia, Airport & Ferry Port Upgrades, Jakarta Stadium & MotoGP Track, as well as Disney World near Bogor, south of Jakarta.

Just hire Chinese to build the high speed rail. Their experience means they will do a better job, on time, and at a fraction of the price.

You are not understanding the real purpose. This is a massive corporate bailout/jobs program. The goal isn’t HSR, Broadband, Bridges, and Tunnels; the goal is wealth transfer from the ratepayers pockets.

Meanwhile in Australia 90% of the National Highway is a single lane potholed flood prone goat track. What's a train? However i do have gigabit fiber cable to the house and i'm 1,700km from my states capital city, so i guess win?

That certainly gives you some escape/protection from zombie apocalypse type situations, I guess. Pretty convenient in modern-day Australia.

All of this is either in the south or will benefit the south. I’m disappointed your images of the hs2 map hasn’t been updated since the British government suspended “cancelled” phase 2 of hs2 through Sheffield to leeds. Hs2 should have connected leeds, Manchester and Birmingham and then connect to London. Sadly the tories only invest in the south….

@another_day4783 3 года назад

They didn't talk about the northern powerhouse rail and hs2 to leeds hasn't been scrapped.

@mcarlsson74 3 года назад

@@another_day4783 This guy is also totally ignoring literally dozens of rail extension and electrification projects going on all over the north. A lot of the commenters here obviously don't read the verticals that regularly update you on the actual projects. They are low information commenters.

Can anyone explain (for logical reasons) why the the road cannot be moved around Stonehenge. Looking at maps there seems plenty space either side of the A303 even at a more longer distance. Why not upgrade the rail link to Bristol for cargo and passenger capacity and speed vs a bigger road

@harisadu8998 3 года назад

Need more and better highways, more rail connections. HS2 is unnecessary. It is so much of a spend to save 20 minutes between places already connected by rail.

“Cost estimates have ballooned from $27 billion to $147 Billion”, ok I understand it may be harder to cost estimate something as large and complex as this, but when the cost estimates are that far of there is some infrastructure, planning and cost consulting companies that should go through there routines and quality checks because that is just mind blowing off cost estimates, almost like one could wonder if the just took that first estimate out of thin air, and they probably didn’t do that, so somewhere along the line it failed.

@david65219 2 года назад

What he didn't mention was the original figure was for a fairly basic line between Manchester, Birmingham and London. The scope has since changed to include a whole other branch to the east, kilometers of new tunnels not in the original spec, a substantial amount more environmental mitigation works and the cost of brand new and upgraded stations plus the actual trains into the headline budget figure. Elsewhere stations and rolling stock procurement have been treated as separate projects with separate budgets.

@death_parade Год назад

Tale of two countries building 500 km long High Speed Rail lines for the first time:- UK $27 Billion => $147 Billion India $15 Billion => $21 Billion Another similar story: Railway electrification:- India 2014: 38% India 2022: 82% India 2024 (target): 100% UK 2014: 38% UK 2022: 38% WTF is wrong with UK?

@malcolm_in_the_middle 2 года назад

Not a fan of the 'super sewer'. The massive cost should rather be used to upgrade from combined to separate sewers. How long before the 'super sewer' itself is overwhelmed? Brute force solutions are probably not the best anymore.

I think people are kicking off because the new trainline will require a lot of land, the fact the British government want to build over 100,000 new homes on this tiny island over the next decade as well, we will not have any land left to grow our own food. We are going to become more reliant on other countries for supplies and France are threatening to block our main supply route because they want access to our fishing waters. We need to massively slow down the population rate on this tiny island before it turns real ugly.

HS2 is a giant failure of imagination and ambition! Instead of going for an ambitious system integrating current transport networks and serving as many as possible (with say, a driverless automated motorway system or a train made of pods which can attach and detach when ever and where ever needed so it never needs to stop) or a cost-effective design like reopening the old central line (which is about 80% intact, disused and would cost only about 5B) our government has opted for a supped up Victorian relic which will never achieve its speeds for any meaningful length of time, pass by more places than it serves, will never reach 'the north' due to costs and will serve only the few wealthy enough to buy a ride on this green toy, so they can feel good about themselves :(

@harbl99 3 года назад

Agreed. I saw a factoid recently that the price of the project has inflated so much that you could pave a track from London to Birmingham with solid gold, and still spend less than the cost of HS2. It's an absurd white elephant. "But it mean I can get to Birmingham to London 20 minutes quicker." Just leave 20 minutes earlier. Job done. I saved you £100bn.

@geoffreythorberg2580 3 года назад

Most of Phase One of HS2 is using what parts of the old grand central railway... Stop thinking of HS2 as a stand along 'NEW' Railway line. HS2 if was drawn on the route diagrams - non geographically correct (non are geographically correct)... you would see it is a purpose built pair of high speed rails from Euston to Birmingham... Wigan, Manchester etc. It is removing the High Speed Trainsets from the existing, running at max capacity WCML to the HS2 rails. HS2 could not be constructed immediately adjacent to the WCML as there is NO room anywhere along the WCML. Get a paper map of the UK railway network, use a marker pen, draw a line parallel to the WCML from Euston to Birmingham International airport (phase 1). Draw it to the left of the existing WCML route with one extra station at OOC (old oak common). The Tory UK Government, instead of drawing it adjacent to show it's real usage and worth... continue to draw the route along a path halfway to WALES!

@geoffreythorberg2580 3 года назад

PS. HS2 should have been designed and constructed to be Quad tracked - Especially in Phase One! If there is not the demand as govt always claim when they design and construct things for 1921, not 2021...by the time HS2 opens it will lack sufficient capacity. 1. construct as quad track from day one of shovel in ground or 2. construct the ground/tunnels, viaducts, etc for quad tracking... with dual track laid now and when it opens and is overwhelmingly insufficient for capacity requirements, it will be cost far less and only take a few months to lay another 150km of dual / double tracking and OHLE. No one in the current so called UK government is a Scientist! They lack vision on anything that will take longer than a fortnight to accomplish. Bozo will have seen something else Shiny, Glittery = and be totally captivated by it. The mentality of three year olds.
