What the petition asks
We believe that the proposed route announced on July 7th of the HS2 Train Route & Works (including RSM Depot in New Crofton) through our communities in West and South Yorkshire is a disgrace
HS2 will destroy hundreds of homes,damage our communities,& wreck the environment in Crofton, Altofts, Sharlston, Hemsworth,South Kirkby & Mexborough.We oppose the current routes and the cost of HS2.We demand the cancellation of the project or require the changing of the plans for viable alternative routes which have been proposed & which HS2 has failed in its statutory duty to consider.
