HS2's Bridge to Nowhere

Plus fixing Britain's driving irritations, and how to deliver New Towns

On a blockbuster episode of The Abundance Agenda this week:

  • Martin tells us the jaw-dropping story of a bridge built for HS2 which is even more egregious than the infamous bat tunnel. This is seriously not to be missed.

  • James explains how a clever new database could make driving much less annoying.

  • And we speak to Lord Ben Gascoigne, Chairman of the Built Environment Select Committee in the House of Lords, about the findings from the first module of the inquiry into New Towns.

You can find Martin’s post about the Bridge to Nowhere here, which includes his post on the Bridge to Nowhere – and many pictures! An essential read!

James’s newsletter and post on digital traffic orders is here.

Don’t forget to tell your friends about the pod – and leave us a nice review on Apple Podcasts!

The Abundance Agenda is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and hopefully wherever you get your podcasts!

You can find James on Bluesky here, and Martin here.
