Network Rail has announced that major railway stations in London will close and train services will be diverted during Christmas for extensive repair work. This includes Liverpool Street, which will be shut for eight days, and Paddington for three days, significantly impacting travel to the city’s four largest airports. Passengers are encouraged to plan accordingly as these disruptions will affect connectivity from 21 December until early January.
Despite appeals to avoid disruption during the festive period, Network Rail is moving forward with planned works over Christmas and New Year, emphasizing that this timeframe allows for substantial engineering efforts with minimal passenger inconvenience compared to regular weeks. By allocating thousands of railway engineers during this time, the organization aims to deliver more reliable services post-repair, emphasizing better travel conditions moving forward. They underline that the Midland mainline will see the most severe disruptions.
