Chris Heaton-Harris MP, Minister of State for the Department of Transportwill took questions at the meeting of a joint Community Board working group last night (15/6).
The East West Rail and HS2 Joint Working Group comprises members of Buckingham & Villages, Haddenham & Waddesdon and Winslow & Villages Community Boards. The areas covered by these boards are all directly affected by the East West Rail and/or HS2 programmes.
Members of the working group were invited to submit questions for the minister in advance with four then selected to be asked. Topics included were:
- Will a direct rail link to Aylesbury be included in the final EWR blueprint as was previously indicated?
- What cash is going to be made available to make up for the continued disruption to local residents and businesses and the negative impact on the local environment?
- Are plans in place to continue with improvements towards engagement and interaction with local communities and organisations as the project continues?
- Will HS2 and EWR work together to minimise the ongoing disruption to residents in Quainton and can clarification be given on when the much needed bridge repairs can take place?
