After months of uncertainty and speculation, the HS2 line in and out of Birmingham has been given the green light.

In this episode we speak to Prime Minister Boris Johnson in Curzon Street about the decision – and find out what people living in the city think about high speed rail.

We also speak with Maria Machancoses, director of Midlands Connect, who tells us why HS2 is just the start – and why the £3.5 billion Midlands Engine Rail must come next.
