At peak construction, over 34,000 people will be needed to design and build the railway. Over 500 of the 2,000 expected apprentices are already on board.
Building the Skills to Deliver HS2– Phase One and Phase 2 summarises the key findings of our latest labour and skills demand and supply forecasting report and outlines the skills challenges and opportunities for delivery of the HS2 Programme and to leave a lasting skills legacy for the country. Read the report.
The construction of HS2 will also show the world the very best of British skills, innovation and ambition. The first phase of the project will employ over 22,000 construction workers, specialist engineers, architects, designers and project managers drawn from across the UK and beyond, using cutting edge technology and world-leading construction techniques.
We are delivering a programme of skills, education and employment activities to meet the requirements to build the railway and leave a legacy of a highly-skilled and diverse workforce to address challenges faced in the wider transport infrastructure sector. Our Skills, Employment and Education Strategy sets out how we are investing in essential skills.
