Network Rail engineers completed an array of improvements on the Norwich to London main line over the three-day bank holiday weekend to make rail services more reliable as part of the company’s Railway Upgrade Plan.

Services between Crewkerne and Exeter will be disrupted from 15 September and 10 November as Network Rail delivers a £9 million flood defence scheme to better protect the railway line.

• Train customers advised to travel on other days

As part of the ongoing improvement work at Micklefield Station and in preparation for the Transpennine Route Upgrade, part of the Great North Rail Project, Network Rail is holding a community drop-in session to provide residents with more information.

Work is now underway on a £1.6 million project to replace bearings under the bridge deck of the Clyde viaduct.  

Rail staff worked around the clock over the bank holiday weekend to complete vital upgrades to give passengers a more reliable railway.

Passengers travelling to or from Liverpool Lime Street this Sunday (2 September) are urged to plan ahead as vital upgrade work will mean rail lines are closed.
