HS2 roadshow in Chelmsley Wood this week

GET the latest information on the high-speed rail link at a public roadshow which is taking place in Chelmsley Wood this week.
The event is an opportunity to find out what the scheme will mean for the local area, with a chance to examine plans and talk to transport experts.
The multi-billion pound line, which will pass near to Yorkminster Drive, has been at the centre of fierce debate ever since plans were announced.
There have been fears about the noise for those living nearest to the track, the loss of open space and congestion through Castle Bromwich during the construction period.
However, supporters claim that the project will be a major boost for the local economy, with Meriden MP Caroline Spelman recently claiming it would encourage many more companies to invest locally.
The roadshow takes place at Chelmsley Wood Town Council, Helmswood Drive on Thursday (March 3). Members of the public are welcome between 2-8pm.
