HS2

After West Ruislip the proposed HS2 rail route swings to the north of Denham, crossing the Colne Valley by a viaduct, before going under the M25 in a tunnel to where it controversially enters the Chilterns. There is no political agenda to these images rather they were taken as an observation of the landscape to be affected and to help me form my own opinions about the likely impact of the railway. The figures in the picture titles refer to the distance (km + m) from the start in London. Detailed maps of the proposed route can be seen at www2.dft.gov.uk/pgr/rail/pi/highspeedrail/proposedroute/maps/index.html These pictures are from the sections covered by maps 4 and 5.
