Change of venue for Crofton information event: Monday 20 Febuary 2017

Due to demand, we are moving the Crofton information event to a larger venue. The date and time of the event remain unchanged.

At the end of last year we wrote to residents about the launch of two public consultations on the High Speed Two (HS2) Phase 2b route. We also provided details of the information events we are holding, to give people the opportunity to speak to the project team and learn more about HS2 in your area.

The number of people attending our information events to date has far exceeded anticipated levels. As a result we have been reviewing all event venues to make sure they can cope with the significant demand and have taken the decision to move the Crofton information event to a larger venue. The date and time of the event remain unchanged.

The new address for the event on Monday 20 February 2017 (12pm to 8pm) is:

Cedar Court Hotel
Denby Dale Road
Calder Grove
Wakefield
WF4 3QZ

We recognise that the new venue is outside Crofton and may be more difficult for those without a car to access. We will be running a regular, free shuttle bus service between the High Street opposite Crofton Academy, the Redbeck Motel on Doncaster Road and the new venue. The timetable can be viewed in our original letter to residents below.
