HS2 is looking for a single partner to manage construction of phase 2a - which will extend the rail route from the West Midlands to Crewe. While the railway let two-part design and build contracts for much of the phase 1 civils work, HS2 has suggested it will employ more of the supply chain directly for phase 2a. It will kick-start its hunt for a "design and delivery partner" next spring, Building understands, with a contract worth between £300m and £500m likely to be signed in 2021.
