Network Rail is reminding residents, passengers and businesses in West Yorkshire that the first stage of public consultation on plans to upgrade the railway between Huddersfield and Westtown (Dewsbury) ends this week.

Network Rail and Arup have launched a report that explores and identifies the future role that stations will play in our towns and cities.

Network Rail and Transport for Wales are urging passengers along the Cambrian Coast to check their journeys in advance throughout October and November as essential upgrade work takes place.

• Lime Street and Edge Hill stations will be closed on 2-3 November
• Passengers can still travel to/from central Liverpool on rail replacement buses or Merseyrail network
• 21^st century signalling upgrade will mean more reliable journeys for passengers

Passengers in the North West are being warned about a five-day closure of the railway in November to renew a bridge over the Leeds Liverpool Canal in one month's time.

Network Rail engineers have successfully delivered upgrade and refurbishment works as part of a wider £5million investment in the West Highland Line.

Residents in the Blackthorn and Piddington area of Oxfordshire are invited to a public information event to find out more about work to stabilise a four mile stretch of embankment on the Chiltern main line.
