The Channel Tunnel Rail Link is Britain's first dedicated
high-speed railway line and its first major railway-building
project in more than a century. Running from London's newly
refurbished St Pancras International to the mouth of the Channel
Tunnel, the link will decrease journey times to Paris and beyond,
as well as to commuter towns in the south-east of England. The
project is also being credited with significant regeneration in the
areas around the new stations and terminus. Well-known architecture
and design commentator Stephen Bayley tells the story of the
building of the link and its sensitive insertion into the rural and
urban landscape, from the spectacular renaissance of St Pancras to
the unearthing of significant archaeological remains along the
route, and from the creation of bridges, viaducts and tunnels to
the planting of wild-flower meadows. Lively and entertaining, this
is a fascinating record of a ground breaking project.
