Network Rail is reminding residents and motorists of critical repair work to Claverton Street railway bridge that is due to begin next week to ensure the continued safe and reliable running of the railway through the city of Bath.

An innovative project to improve carbon emissions and energy performance at Reading station is underway which has the potential to improve the station’s energy performance by around 20%.

Trains will be diverted around Bristol Parkway this Sunday in the first of a series of planned rail improvements this summer. 

Thousands of new homes and jobs will be created through the regeneration of Bristol Temple Quarter, thanks to £95m in government funding, Levelling Up Minister Neil O’Brien MP announced today (Friday 10 June 2022).  

The station will re-open after the completion of a 13-week programme of engineering works designed to create a better experience for passengers.

Passengers intending to travel on the Northern City Line between Finsbury Park and Moorgate on Sunday 19 June are asked to plan ahead as work is taking place to further test digital signalling on the route. 

• Network Rail is thanking passengers for using alternative journeys into Manchester over the recent Queen’s Platinum Jubilee bank holiday 
• 450 railway engineers completed a major signalling overhaul to modernise journeys into the city as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade 
• This will allow for faster line speeds towards Manchester Victoria meaning more reliable journeys for passengers now and enabling faster journeys in future 

People in Sussex will be able to cross the railway much more easily and safely following the opening of a new subway at Hassocks.
