A local MP says she is seeking answers over the future of land earmarked for HS2.

Phase 2 of the project north of Handsacre was cancelled by the Government amid spiralling costs.

But with uncertainty still surrounding large elements of the scheme Sarah Edwards, Labour MP for Tamworth constituency – which includes Shenstone, Stonnall and Fazeley – said answers were urgently needed.

She said:

> “For the best part of a decade, my constituents – and indeed the country – were promised that HS2 would revolutionise transport and commuting for so many.  
>  
> “I have asked the Department for Transport what will happen to land that was originally earmarked for HS2 projects in the local area.”
