HS2 works are continuing to advance inexorably closer to Wendover itself. The pace of work is increasing, especially now the majority of the WAR group have been evicted from the site. Weekend works on the sheet piling adjacent to the railway line are underway with closures for four Friday night to Monday morning sessions to complete the work without impacting on the A413. www.wendover-pc.gov.uk/post/sheet-piling A reply to Rob Butler’s letter to Andrew Stephenson about the option of mined tunnel for us and other ideas, has not encouraged us (the post visit letter from the HS2 Minister to Rob Butler MP is available on www.wendover-pc.gov.uk/post/post-visitletter-from-hs2-minister-to-rob-butler-mp) but we are determined to continue the fight as a mined tunnel would solve many potential issues of noise and water. A Freedom of Information request about whether EKFB had ever been given a green light to report fully on our proposal, and if so, why can’t it
be shared with us, has caused Lord Berkeley to send a further letter to the HS2 Minister suggesting it was never in fact completed! The working group are also progressing crossparty support for a completely independent review of the mined tunnel proposal, with a letter signed by various MPs. (See www. wendover-pc.gov.uk) Meanwhile the HS2 access road through the Ellesborough Road field should be completed by the time you read this, ready for the demolition of some of the cottages to make way for the Cut and Cover section of the route! The temporary relief road for Ellesborough Road comes later. The Wendover Parish Council and its Working Group are fully committed to pushing for the Mined Tunnel as the best mitigation for our green and pleasant land!
