The Levenmouth rail link project has taken another huge step forward with the start of work to remove the old disused track and redundant infrastructure from the former branch line.

Passengers travelling by train this bank holiday in the Anglia region will be able to do so as Network Rail’s engineering work has been planned to minimise disruption.

• Vast majority of the rail network – over 95% – will be open for business as usual over the August Bank Holiday
• Some routes will be affected by the upgrade works taking place, so passengers should plan ahead
• The railway expects people to follow government guidance and out of respect for others, wear a face covering in busy indoor settings unless they are exempt

A three-day project to upgrade the railway near Weybridge in Surrey, between Saturday 7 and Monday 9 August, will improve reliability and increase train speeds in the area – but passengers are asked to check before they travel as it includes a weekday.
