There are loads of things about HS2 that I think could have been done better. The lack of cycle provision on the bridges is one that I think is a very bad decision. The construction phase is poor too, see https://twitter.com/adamtranter/status/1304848140722413576
But the government could have scrapped the whole project which I think would have been worse.
I'm mostly in favour of HS2, for capacity rather than speed reasons, and that seems to be going ahead. Maybe just project inertia?
