A multi-billion pound plan to operate, maintain and renew Network Rail’s vast London North Eastern and East Midlands (LNE&EM) route has been published.

Work to increase the height of a bridge over the Gospel Oak to Barking railway line in north London will take place this month to create extra space for the overhead lines underneath.

The latest phase of the Midland Main Line Upgrade begins in Bedford next week as a major road bridge is reconstructed.

Network Rail’s Anglia route has set out its plan to invest more than £2 billion to enable more trains, faster services and better connections, while maintaining the performance, resilience and reliability of the rail network across the region in the five years from 2019-2024.

Network Rail is carrying out work to upgrade New Cross Street road bridge in Bradford, as part of the Great North Rail Project.

Network Rail has installed 12 new pieces of original art at Leeds station to improve the experience of passengers travelling through it and create a more colourful and vibrant environment.

Rail travellers are advised to check before they travel as the latest stage of the Great North Rail Project takes place.

A multimedia campaign has been launched to spread an important railway safety message as work continues to electrify the Midland Main Line between Kettering, Corby and Bedford.
