	The extension of the FLASH facility at DESY (Hamburg, Germany) - FLASH II Project - is under way. The extension includes a second undulator line with variable gap undulators to allow a more flexible operation, and a new experimental hall for photon experiments. The present FLASH linac will drive the both undulator beamlines. Civil construction of the new buildings has been started in autumn 2011 continuing in several steps until early 2013. The design of the new beamline including the extraction from the FLASH linac and the undulator is mostly finished, and the manufacturing of the components is under way. The mounting of the beamline will start in autumn 2012, and the commissioning with beam is scheduled for second half of 2013. We report here the design of the different phases of the project including the time schedule up to the first user operation.

	The photoinjector of FLASH uses an RF gun equipped with caesium telluride photocathodes illuminated by appropriate UV laser pulses as a source of ultra-bright electron beams. The superconducting accelerator of FLASH is able to accelerate a 0.8 ms long train of thousands of electron bunches in a burst mode. This puts special demands on the design of the electron source, especially the laser system. The construction of a second undulator beamline FLASH2 has started. The pulse train will be divided into two parts to serve both beamlines simultaneously. Since experiments with the FLASH soft X-ray beam need flexibility, we plan to use two laser systems each serving one beamline. This makes it possible to deliver two trains with different properties in charge, number of bunches, and bunch spacing in the same RF pulse. This also required an upgrades of the laser beamline design. We report on improvements of the laser beamline and first tests operating two lasers simultaneously at FLASH.
