Construction is planned in two phases: Phase One will include the route from London to Birmingham, and Phase 2 will consist of a Y-shaped route north of Birmingham to Manchester and Leeds. Work on Phase One of the route began in 2017, and passenger services are planned to begin in 2026. Phase 2a to Crewe on the initial part of the western leg of the "Y" is due to start services in 2027, and the remainder of phase 2b by 2033. (en)
