Network Rail is urging rail passengers in south London and Sussex to check before they travel this Easter weekend as thousands of engineers work around the clock to deliver more reliable infrastructure, improved facilities and services.

Passengers travelling on South Western Railway tomorrow (Saturday 16^th March) are advised to check their journeys before travelling as a blanket 50mph speed restriction will be imposed across the network from 10am until 9pm owing to the forecasted severe weather.

Network Rail have teamed up with security experts Land Sheriffs to reduce incidents which can cause delays on the railway and bring better, more reliable services for South Western Railway passengers.

Passengers at London Waterloo station, which handles almost 100 million journeys each year, are now benefitting from more up to date, real time travel advice as station staff have been issued with mobile technology to help them better guide people on their journeys.

The public toilets at the busiest railway station in the country are free to use from today, as Network Rail continues to put passengers first.

Passengers and residents in the Selhurst area are invited to a drop-in session to find out more about the upcoming Access for All station improvement project.
