Stop HS2 and invest in a future looking transport system
HS2 is investment in 19th century technology when we need to once again lead the world with a future looking transport system.
Focus the investment on autonomous vehicles, road trains, drones, self driving cars, even hyperloop.
HS2 is out of date before it is even built.
Hyperloop already shown to be cheaper then high speed rail.
