“new railway that is fit for the 21st century” – 20th century the ICE means, HSR is a 20th century technology.
Its not a surprise that engineers support a major engineering project
However they say—-
‘Additionally he (the chairman of the working group) urged Government to ensure the UK wide benefits are realised, by committing to the full ‘Y’ shaped route extending to Leeds and Manchester and by giving serious consideration to future extensions to other key UK cities’
This is not planned in detail nor would it be in any hybrid bill in this parliament so where’s the commitment?
….but probably the best place to visit will be the website of the Institution of Civil Engineers where you will get a balanced response by professional experts in their field, who are both qualified and practice their skills on a daily basis.
……………. civil engineers like Mott McDonald who will also be rubbing their hands at the work that might be coming their way………………
