Mark Wild, chief executive of HS2 Ltd, emphasized the urgency for a "fundamental reset" for the HS2 project, which faces both cost overruns and significant delays.
Despite setbacks, Mark Wild noted that HS2 still represents a "significant investment in Britain's future," essential for economic growth and improved transportation connectivity.
The current government estimates put the cost of the remaining Birmingham to London stretch of HS2 between £45bn and £54bn, highlighting financial challenges ahead.
With over 31,000 people employed on the project and significant engineering milestones achieved, HS2 continues its journey toward completion despite its troubled past.
