Community Engagement Strategy & Plans

The Community Engagement Strategy sets out HS2's approach to community engagement and what it means for those who either live or work within the communities along the line of the new railway. The strategy includes 10 commitments that we will use as the basis to measure our success. The strategy will help support our thinking, actions and decision making of both our people and our supply chain. Our aspiration is to be a good neighbour every single day, by respecting the people and communities we impact and being sensitive to their needs, earning our social licence to operate. The Community Engagement Strategy can be found here .

We have a collection of Local Area Engagement Plans for Phase One. Each Plan is localised to a specific area and explains how we’ll deliver our Strategy at a local level. It sets out how we’ll engage with you to make sure that we meet our Commitments and continue to be a good neighbour. The most recent Local Area Engagement Plan for Birmingham is available here.
