HS2: Members’ Survey
As members will know, the Chiltern Society is opposed to any high speed rail route crossing the Chilterns. We are working with other groups and organisations with similar views to persuade the Government against such a course.
Our position is that we are not opposed to high speed rail as a concept, although we have serious doubts about the economic viability of HS2. The Society’s remit is to protect, enhance and promote the Chilterns, and the view of the Executive Council and those actively working on this issue on the Society’s behalf is that a high speed rail route across the Chilterns will devastate the countryside that we prize so highly.
It is important, however, that as the consultation and the HS2 issue gather momentum, we know the views of our members. The Society is the largest organisation, in terms of membership, representing the Chilterns as a whole, and in the coming months the Society will engage further with politicians, HS2 Ltd and other decision makers. Both the Society’s negotiators and those to whom we are talking need to know the membership’s views.
Please complete the survey below. On this occasion we are asking members to include their name and address, so we can verify it is a members-only survey. This is only for verification purposes and we will not publicise or otherwise use the information received without your permission. A more wide-ranging survey may be commissioned later in the year.
