Croxley Rail Link to be cheaper alternative to HS2

Fri, 24 Aug 2012 17:34:00 +0100

I am supporting an idea of the London Underground Metropolitan line to be extended to Watford Junction. Although the existing Watford station would be closed, there will be many benefits:

Quicker access to Birmingham from Chesham, Croxley and all train stations between Aylesbury Vale Parkway and North Harrow, by getting the Croxley Rail Link to Watford Junction and then using the existing London - Birmingham line from there
It will allow new proposed stations at Ascot Road and Watford Hospital, and trains would also stop at Watford Junction
The cost is planned to be £119.82 million, 283 times cheaper than HS2 is planned to cost

Below is a diagram of what the Croxley Rail Link route is planned to be:

68% of us don't want HS2 to go across the Chilterns

Thu, 23 Aug 2012 18:11:12 +0100

According to a current poll on the Buckinghamshire Examiner website (www.buckinghamshireexaminer.co.uk), 68% of us have answered 'No' in a poll which asks 'Do you support plans for a high speed rail link to whizz trains through the Chilterns on their way from London to the Midlands?' This has made us more confident about stopping HS2, although the poll only asks if people want HS2 to go across the Chilterns, and not if they support the whole idea. Go to http://www.buckinghamshireexaminer.co.uk/south-bucks-news/highspeedrail/ to have your say in whether or not you support plans for HS2 to go across the Chilterns, or you can answer using the new poll on our homepage.
