Everybody Who Thinks HS2 Is A Waste Of Money Should Read This!
This article on Global Rail News is entitled Economic benefits of HS1 revealed as high-speed line turns 10.
This is the first three paragraphs.
HS1 Ltd has assessed the economic impact of the UK’s first high-speed line as it approaches a milestone 10th year.
According to findings, HS1 has attracted a minimum of £3.8 billion in economic and social benefits since domestic services began, which was two years after its official opening in November 2007.
In addition, 5,766 tourism sector jobs have been created and supported by HS1 since the opening.
So I’d say that was a success.
