Train services between Weymouth and Yeovil Pen Mill, Dorchester South and Wool will be affected by major improvements in November and December.

Network Rail will carry out a package of improvements, maintenance and upgrades to benefit Anglia’s railways to drive down delays and improve reliability for passengers while the majority of the network will remain open for business as usual.

• Vast majority of the rail network – over 95% – will be open for business as usual for passengers looking to travel by train over Christmas and New Year
• Most of the £131m upgrade work planned for when passenger trains don't run – such as overnight, Christmas Day and Boxing Day – to minimise disruption. But some routes will be affected by the essential work taking place, so passengers should plan ahead
• Passengers – who are asked to wear a face covering in busy indoor settings unless they are exempt – can continue to travel with confidence this Christmas
