HS2 to cost Welsh passengers time and cash - Plaid

The article from MSN discusses the concerns raised by Plaid Cymru regarding the impact of the High Speed 2 (HS2) rail project on Welsh passengers. According to Plaid Cymru, the HS2 project, which primarily benefits England, will lead to increased travel times and costs for those traveling from Wales to London. The party argues that the rerouting of trains and the lack of direct services will disadvantage Welsh commuters, potentially adding up to an hour to their journey times. Furthermore, Plaid Cymru criticizes the UK Government for not providing Wales with the same level of investment in rail infrastructure as seen in other parts of the UK, pointing out that this disparity could hinder economic development in Wales. They call for a fair funding formula and better rail connectivity to ensure that Wales does not continue to be sidelined in national infrastructure projects.
