Scheduled to open in phases between 2028 and 2040, HS2 will be the second major high-speed rail line in Britain; the first is High Speed 1 (HS1), which connects London to the Channel Tunnel and was opened in the mid-2000s.

The phases of the new high speed track project are:

Phase 1 – from London to the West Midlands; enabling works started in 2017, construction started in 2020 and the first services are scheduled to begin between 2029 and 2033.
Phase 2 – from the West Midlands to Leeds and Manchester.
