Thinking about it, would it be beneficial for the UK to partially fund construction of LGVs on the contingent?
Two examples of ones I think might come under this
LGV Picardie (Calais-Amiens-Paris), taking 20 minutes off of the London-Paris journey time
Calais-Ghent-Antwerp, providing a fast route to the Netherlands avoiding the need to go via both Lille & Brussels, as well as accessing Ghent.
Calais/Lille-Amiens-Rouen-Le Havre, allowing the west of France to access London and Brussels/Holland without needing to go via Paris.
