Birmingham unveiling its own HS2 station plans

Of course Mr Nazir is right – and I don't live within a hundred miles of Birmingham. If they can plan and design an HS2 route, they can do the job properly and integrate decent interchange links with New Street and Moor Street Stations as well as an imposing an iconic building for the city as an international terminus.
I applaud Brum's attitude of finding the difference in money to make a difference on the ground – would that more localities had that get-up-and-fight attitude for their local stations and rail connections, for their and other towns’ hard-pressed commuters and passengers.
Whilst they're at it, can they please explain exactly WHY a second tunnel from Moor Street to Snow Hill can't be bored?
