<p>The Government announced their preferred HS2 route in South Yorkshire on 15 November
in <em>High Speed Two: from Crewe to Manchester, the West Midlands to Leeds and beyond</em>
(Cm 9355). Our proposal is that HS2 should serve Sheffield city centre through a spur
off the proposed HS2 line, enabling HS2 trains to run into Sheffield along the existing
rail network. This proposal is currently subject to public consultation.</p><p> </p><p>In
the process of making a final decision about the HS2 route in South Yorkshire the
Government will take into account work that HS2 Ltd will have carried out, both in
the past and more recently, into alternative routes to both the Meadowhall and M18
route.</p>
