Written Question
Channel Tunnel Railway Line: High Speed 2 Railway Line
Wednesday 17th June 2015

Asked by: Lord Rodgers of Quarry Bank (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what consideration they have given to building a rail link between the terminus of High Speed 2 at Euston station and the terminus of High Speed 1 at St Pancras International station.

Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

The High Speed 2 Phase One hybrid Bill includes a link to High Speed 1. It has been decided not to take forward this rail link. However, a study has been commissioned into better connectivity to the Continent which is due to report later this year. Whilst there are currently no plans to provide a rail link between Euston and St Pancras, we are looking at how connectivity between the two stations can be improved.
