The latest legal challenge to the HS2 high-speed rail project has been rejected by the Court of Appeal.
Objectors including residents' groups and 15 councils along the route had asked judges to order a further assessment of the scheme as a whole.
Judges dismissed all seven grounds of the challenge but said a final appeal could be made to the Supreme Court.
High-speed rail minister Simon Burns urged opponents not to "waste any more taxpayers' money" on litigation.
He said: "By dismissing all seven grounds of appeal and declining to refer the case to Europe, this is the second time in four months a court has rejected attempts to derail HS2.
"Parliament is the right place to debate the merits of HS2, not the law courts, and we will introduce the hybrid bill for phase one before the year is out."
Mr Burns said the government would continue with the "crucial business" of getting HS2 ready for construction in 2017.
