Chalfont St Giles ventilation shaft and head house: 'You Said, We Did' design update

In February 2020 we held an event to share our plans for the Chalfont St Giles vent shaft, the construction processes, traffic management plans and the early plans for the layout of the construction site.

After the public Design Input event, you completed questionnaires covering four topics: Landscape Design; Ecology; Headhouse Design and Construction. We asked you to rank our objectives in order of priority and provide comments and we are now able to share how your feedback has been incorporated into the design at our 'You Said, We Did' online engagement events.

Due to COVID-19 we are not currently able to hold face-to-face public events, but we are holding these online events to update you on the design of the Chalfont St Giles ventilation shaft and to also provide an update about our construction works at the Chalfont St Peter vent shaft.

Sign up to our online events to find out more

These online "webinars" have been set up to give the local community the opportunity to hear from the team designing and building the railway in your area.

During the sessions we will discuss:

  • how our design for the vent shaft headhouse has changed following our engagement event last year
  • our approach to landscape design and ecology at the site
  • our traffic management measures and the construction programme
  • a construction update on our works in Chalfont St Peter
  • Our team of experts will also be available to answer any questions you may have during the event.

    This event is being held on two dates, please select which date to you would like to attend when registering:

  • Thursday 11 February 18:30 to 19:30
  • Monday 15 February 12:30 to 13:30
  • If you have a question about HS2 or our works, please contact our HS2 Helpdesk team on 08081 434 434 or email hs2enquiries@hs2.org.uk .
