The section of HS2, known as Phase 2a, will extend the high speed line from the West Midlands to Crewe, and provide reduced journey times further north by connecting to the West Coast Main Line at Crewe.
It will open in 2027, 6 years earlier than planned, bringing benefits to the North of England sooner.
