On 11 February 2021, the Parliamentary Bill to build the Phase 2a of the High Speed 2 route received Royal Assent.

The granting of Royal Assent enables work to commence on the construction of the link from Birmingham to Crewe, the next stage following commencement of Phase 1 linking London to Birmingham.

The announcement of Royal Assent for Phase 2a came at the same time as the launch of the West Midlands Combined Authority’s HS2 Growth Strategy which sets out how High Speed 2 could generate new jobs and inward investment in the region.
