Best value of HS2 project

£5m will be invested in woodlands along the spine of England, following launch of the HS2 Woodland Fund.

As part of the construction of Britain’s new high speed railway, High Speed Two (HS2) Ltd is creating a network of new wildlife habitats along the route.  This includes around 7m new trees & shrubs on the first phase of the railway.

In addition to this extensive tree planting programme, a separate fund has been established to help local landowners create new native, broadleaf woodlands and restore existing ancient woodland sites.
