This plan incorporated a new 125 miles per hour (201 km/h) trans-Pennine high speed rail link connecting to the northern branches of HS2 at Manchester and Leeds (30-minute journey time), together with other regional rail developments, and the bringing forward of the construction of the northern part of HS2, as part of a regional transport plan including other road, intermodal port, and rail freight improvements. The estimated cost of the high-speed Manchester–Leeds rail link was circa over ÂŁ5bn, with a proposed completion date of 2030; the entire project was costed at ÂŁ10bn to ÂŁ15bn. George Osborne attended the project launch, and provided his backing for the project. A report 307: 748: 5568: 5558: 2892: 536: 319: 31: 5578: 2902: 660:

The proposals included new-build routes between the major northern cities, with cost estimates from ÂŁ5bn to ÂŁ19bn, and estimated journey times of one half to two thirds of current routes; alternative upgrades of existing routes were costed in the ÂŁ1bn to ÂŁ7bn range, and had lesser journey time reductions, of the order of 10–15

a Strategic Outline Business Case for NPR was to have been completed by the end of 2018, which was then delayed until 2020. This was then further delayed until the publishing of the Integrated Rail Plan (IRP) in November 2021. As well as a through station for Bradford, there have been calls for an additional station at Rochdale on the new line between Manchester and Leeds.
