Great Western Railway services in Hereford and Worcester to be affected by engineering work from today
The work is set to run to the 26th April
Great Western Railway services in Hereford and Worcester will be affected by engineering work from today.
Network Rail plan to replace tracks between Worcester Shrub Hill and Evesham stations.
Trains will be disrupted between Evesham and Hereford, as well as between Cheltenham Spa and Worcester Foregate Street to the 26th April.
Billy White, Great Western Railways Station Manager for Oxford, Didcot and North Cotswolds, said: “This improvement work forms part of an ongoing programme of maintenance, helping to ensure that we can continue to provide consistent and reliable services.
“GWR will provide rail replacement services between Evesham or Cheltenham Spa and Worcester Foregate Street.
“Ticket acceptance has also been agreed to enable customers to travel on other train services between London and Worcester or Hereford instead.
“However, these alternative travel arrangements via Birmingham or Bristol Parkway will make journey times much longer, so please check before you travel.”
Services will still operate between Worcester Foregate Street and Hereford through West Midlands Railway.
