Abstract or Introduction
To understand the environmental issues and the policy debate around High-Speed 2, we firstly need to define what a stakeholder is and understand what the High-Speed 2 (HS2) project is. The HS2 project involves a new train route to be built through the midlands to bridge the North and South of England. This involves destroying property and habitats for the train line to go through such as in the Chiltern Hills. High-Speed 2 is a government backed project to increase fast rail links between the North, Midlands and the South of the UK.
The idea of doing this not only helps reduce overcrowding but also links UK cities through significantly quicker journeys and also benefit other cities who make changes that takes them onto HS2 train network.
