High speed rail
In January 2009, the Government established High Speed Two Ltd (HS2 Ltd) to consider the options for a new high speed rail network in Britain, starting with a costed and deliverable proposal for a new line from London to Birmingham. HS2 Ltd's report concludes that there is a strong business case for a new London to Birmingham line, and sets out detailed recommendations for the design of its route, together with a range of options for how it might be extended to serve other conurbations. The Government has evaluated these proposals in respect of their costs and benefits for enhancing capacity and connectivity in a sustainable way, which is its key strategic objective for inter-city transport....

Evaluating High-Speed Rail
High-speed Rail (HSR) is a technological transportation advance that has raised the interest of policy makers and researchers worldwide. The study of High-speed Rail is a recent phenomenon but has received increasing attention due to the extension of this mode of transportation around the globe. Evaluating High-Speed Rail contains some of the most recent and cutting edge studies on HSR from different disciplines. The book is organized around a variety of key topics related to the evaluation of High Speed Rail projects and experiences. These topics include: the economic appraisal and evaluation of High-Speed Rail projects; the evaluation of indirect and direct effects of High-Speed Rail; its ...
High Speed Rail
This document sets out the government's initial preferences for phase two of HS2, extending the route north of Birmingham to Manchester and Leeds. HS2 is a once in-a-generation opportunity to transform Britain's connectivity, capacity and competitiveness. It will be a national asset, slashing journey times and improving services between our cities and regions. It will also free up substantial space on the existing railway. Part I of this document sets out more of the background to the HS2 project. It describes in greater detail the role that high speed rail has to play in meeting the future transport and economic needs of this country. Part 2 moves on to discuss the detail of the government'...
High Speed Rail and Access Transit Networks
This book examines the promise of High Speed Rail (HSR) technologies to win market share from carbon-intensive air transport through the strategic optimization of rail productivity and efficiency. While the positive impacts of HSR at both urban and long-distance levels are well-documented, this resource focuses on what has been a challenging area for HSR deployment historically: the integration of HSR accessibility at the regional level. The author provides tools and methods to better measure the feasibility of integrating regional HSR with existing transport networks, and includes in-depth case studies to demonstrate the contributions of expanded high speed rail access on sustainable development. Shares options for maximizing efficiency and effectiveness of high speed rail transport; Compares strategies for integrating urban, long-distance, and regional high speed rail transport; Explores new dimensions of high speed rail deployment b y linking transit networks with increased regional accessibility.
The European High-speed Train and Urban Development
Stimulated by European integration, the need for high-grade transport connections among the major European cities is growing. Coinciding with their reurbanization efforts, the authors argue that the HST is eminently suitable to fill that need, since it connects urban centres and is relatively environment friendly. This comparative investigation in 14 European cities sets out to analyze how the HST can make an optimum contribution to the development of urban regimes.
High Speed Two
This Command Paper provides an update on plans for HS2. The aims of HS2 can be set out as follows: (1) Add capacity to our constrained network; (2) Increase connectivity and be a new backbone for our national rail network; (3) Be a catalyst for sustained and balanced economic growth across the UK, helping to build an economy that works for all; (4) Create opportunities for skills and employment and promote UK leadership and expertise in construction and engineering; (5) Set new standards in passenger experience, reliability, and accessibility improving journeys for people; (6) Deliver value to the UK taxpayer and passenger; (7) Create an environmentally sustainable solution and be a good nei...
