Birmingham’s new HS2 Curzon Street station will be net zero carbon in operation

A CIOB site visit to the new HS2 Curzon Street station in Birmingham will take place on 22 June. The visit will be combined with an overview of HS2’s new health and safety strategy.

Birmingham Curzon Street station will be the first brand new intercity terminus station built in Britain since the 19th century. The goal is to create a railway designed, built and operated to the highest health, safety and security standards.

The station will be net zero carbon in operation, with the latest eco-friendly design and sustainable technologies, including capturing rainwater and utilising sustainable power generation. Over 2,800 sq m of solar panels are located on platform canopies.

Steve Fink, head of HSE operations at HS2, will combine an overview of the safety work with a chance to get up close to the new railway as it rises out of the ground.

This site visit will be run by HS2 and BBV. For details and to register contact: [email protected].
