The Prime Minister defended his decision to cut back the rail project as he met voters while the Labour Party holds its conference in Liverpool.
Mr Sunak visited a Currys repair and customer service centre in Newark, Notts, yesterday where he answered questions.
The PM told staff: "We're going to take every penny of that £36billion [saved] and we're going to spend it on transport across the country - on bus, on road, on rail, on all the forms of transport that you use every day.
"We're going to deliver it far quicker so that you can see the benefits faster.
"We're going to see it across more parts of our country. I think that is the right thing to do for the long term.
"There were lots of communities, including many in the East Midlands, who would have seen worse service to London as a result of HS2 being built, because those services will either have been slower or will have been reduced. That won't happen now."
