How HS2 built a bridge to nowhere
A state-of-the-art road bridge has been built deep in the heart of rural Buckinghamshire. Designed to carry traffic over the HS2 railway, there's just one tiny problem - there's no actual road.

Completely fascinating and helps to explain how HS2 costs more than any other train worldwide. Also, I don't think there's enough about how much of this is driven by corruption. A series of powerful interest groups with revolving door employment arrangements ensuring expensive work for all involved.
