29. An Introduction to HS2 and Regeneration Jamie Kerr Head of Regeneration Company Development HS2 Ltd

30. Addressing the capacity crunch • In 2011/12 passengers made around 1.5 billion journeys, almost doubled since 1994/95 • 125 million long distance journeys were made in 2011/12, more than doubled since 1994/95 • By mid 2020s, key routes will be severely crowded • HS2 provides high frequency and high capacity services • Up to 18 trains per hour, each carrying up to 1,100 passengers • Capacity freed up on existing network • More freight trains using the space freed up on the existing rail network

31. The vision for HS2:the catalyst for high speed Britain • A 21st century high speed rail backbone, integrated with existing network • Direct, high capacity, rail links between our major cities • Foundation for future growth and prosperity • Investment in infrastructure that will deliver a lasting dividend

32. Transforming the UK’s geography • Better connections to/from London • Poor inter-regional connectivity seen as growth constraint • HS2 is not just a new train line, it’s a new national network • New trains will continue into current network

33. Better commuter services Milton Keynes Up to 12 trains an hour to London Euston Up to 1/3 reduction in average journey times Northampton Up to six trains an hour to London Euston Reduction in average journey times Berkhamsted Up to eight trains an hour to London Euston Up to 1/3 reduction in average journey times Better local services, including on the Kensington Olympia route

34. Key facts: Phase One • Connection between London and the West Midlands allowing through trains to run onto the West Coast Main Line to serve cities further north and Scotland • A new interchange station at Old Oak Common in West London linking with Crossrail, the Heathrow Express, the Great Western Main Line and other public transport • Stations in Central Birmingham and near Birmingham Airport • 140 miles (225km) route length • Remodelling of Euston station • Route crosses 24 local authorities – 50% in tunnel or cutting

35. Key facts: Phase Two • The high speed lines will be extended further north, to Manchester on the western leg and to Leeds on the eastern leg • The western leg will serve Manchester Airport and Manchester Piccadilly • The eastern leg will serve stations in the East Midlands, South Yorkshire and Leeds • Link to the West Coast Main Line at Crewe for services to Liverpool • Link to the West Coast Main Line near Wigan for services to Scotland • Link to the East Coast Main Line for York and Newcastle • Phase Two adds another 211 miles (365km) of new railway onto Phase One • Leeds 116 miles • Manchester 95 miles

36. High speed rail and regeneration • HS1 has seen regeneration at Stratford and Kings Cross worth £10bn, plus wider economic benefits of £3.8bn • Lillehas developed a major commercial centre around its new station • Crossrailis already affecting investment decisions, and could help create additional residential and commercial value of up to £5.5bn between 2012 and 2021 • HS2 are working in collaboration with the Core Cities, London Boroughs and the GLA and other stakeholders to maximise the regeneration opportunities

37. Growth Taskforce • Proposal for a Regeneration Company • HS2 and London and Continental Railways to respond to proposal • Offering expertise and capacity on commercial and investment opportunities • Ensuring integration of HS2 stations into surrounding areas and wider transport network • Identifying sources of investment

38. Local Delivery Bodies • 4 stations on phase 1 - 5 stations on phase 2 • Growth Strategies to be produced for each station area • No ‘one size fits all’ solution Birmingham Curzon • 14,000 jobs • 600,000 m2 new business space • 2,000 new homes • £1.3 billion economic uplift Birmingham Interchange • 10,000 jobs • Green Belt
