Levelling up in the North has been called into question after the government revealed why Manchester won't be getting an underground HS2 station, and we want to know how you feel about the situation.
The high cost of £5 billion has been cited as the reason, with High Speed Rail director general Clive Maxwell saying: "It would have meant digging a very large underground box and cavern to accommodate all those platforms, and that would have cost very large sums of money."
However, this goes against warnings from Northern leaders about the damaging consequences building an overground station could have on Manchester.
