Plans for upgrade work in Cambridgeshire to be unveiled by Network Rail

Published on : Wednesday, June 29, 2016

Plans to allow more trains to run and reduce journey times on the East Coast Main Line will be on display at four public information events being held by Network Rail in Cambridgeshire next week.

 
The events will focus on a project to reinstate a fourth track between Huntingdon and Woodwalton as part of Network Rail’s Railway Upgrade Plan to provide a bigger, better, more reliable railway for passengers and businesses.

The project will reinstate six miles of track on the east side of the railway between Huntingdon station and Woodwalton and remove the level crossing at Abbots Ripton. It will remove a critical bottleneck between London and the North by allowing fast trains to overtake slower ones, increasing the number of services which can run and improving reliability.

Network Rail engineers and their contractors will be available to give more information about the Huntingdon to Woodwalton project and answer questions on the dates and times below:

• Abbots Ripton Village Hall, Huntingdon, PE28 2PF – Monday, 4 July 2016 between 4 and 8pm.

• Woodwalton Village Hall, Woodwalton, PE28 5YN – Tuesday, 5 July 2016 between 4 and 8pm.

• Huntingdon Town Hall (Assembly Hall), Huntingdon, PE29 3PJ – Friday, 8 July 2016 between 4 and 8pm.

• Huntingdon Town Hall (Assembly Hall), Huntingdon, PE29 3PJ – Saturday, 9 July 2016 between 10am and 3pm.
