Crossrail 2

Another ambitious project coming
down the tracks is Crossrail 2.
This will serve stations throughout
the South East, linking south west
and north east London, as well
as destinations in to Surrey and
Hertfordshire. The Government
has identified Crossrail 2 as a
priority and provided £80million
to develop the project.
The £27billion north-south
route is only expected to be
operational in 2030, but this
should be something Buy-to-Let
investors start to follow closely
– especially for their long-term
investment plans.
Crossrail 2 will help relieve
congestion on busy routes into
central London and support
economic development in and
around the capital
The simple message is that we
as Buy-to-let investors, in search
of first grade investments, would
do well to look at properties in the
vicinity of the new rail routes into
London.
