Roads

So, it would take 12 billion to repair the roads. That is a lot of money!
It will cost 57 billion overall for HS2. Priorities?

The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

To be fair, I suspect it would cost 12 billion to botch repair the roads like we always do here. To actually do the job properly so they last would cost a lot more. But yes, given that they had to move the planned site for Leeds HS2 station a quarter mile closer to the city centre because they realised that otherwise it would be quicker to just go to the main station and take an East Coast train than walk to the HS2 station and use that, you have to wonder what the point of it all is.
I too presume the road repairs would cost a lot more to be done correctly but haven't the time to research.
It won't be done in any case.
The point of HS2? Who is supplying the infrastructure materials and parts?

Mancs could get to London a hour quicker at most.
