Impressive new images have been revealed to showcase what the two new HS2 stations in Birmingham and Solihull – Birmingham Curzon and The Interchange Station – could look like. HS2, a ‘once in a lifetime opportunity’ set to bring phenomenal economic growth opportunities to the UK, is set to arrive in the West Midlands in 2026 – and all the key stakeholders including Urban Growth Company and West Midlands Combined Authority will share details of the wider strategy and regional vision for regeneration and development at the HS2 Economic Growth Conference in November.

Andy Street, Mayor of the West Midlands, said: ”These brand new stations will be catalysts for regeneration, creating jobs and opportunities for local people and economic benefits for Birmingham and the Midlands. Curzon Street station will put Birmingham at the heat of Britain’s new high speed network and enhance the rail connectivity for the city, whilst Interchange provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help drive the growth of the region.”

Mark Thurston, Chief Executive of HS2 Ltd – who’re supported the HS2 Economic Growth Conference next month, said: ”Preparatory work for the stations is well under way, with a variety of enabling works including the construction of access roads and archaeological investigations. As part of our plans to deliver a green corridor across the whole route, we’re also creating new ecological habitats, community and amenity spaces to help integrate the new line and our stations into the surrounding landscape and environment. All of the activity is already creating job opportunities not just in the region, but across the whole country.”
