Engineering work is taking place as part of the Crossrail project between Twyford and Slough, closing 2 out of the 4 lines. This will affect local stopping trains and will not impact High Speed trains.
The 06:45 London Paddington to Reading will start from Slough at 07:35. Customers should travel on TfL Rail service from London Paddington towards Heathrow Central, changing at Hayes & Harlington for road transport at 07:04 from Hayes & Harlington to Slough to connect into the train. Also change at Hayes & Harlington for road transport at 07:05 from Hayes & Harlington to West Drayton and Langley (this bus continues to Slough).
Most local trains from Reading to London Paddington will depart up to 7 minutes earlier than normal. Near-normal times from Slough and beyond.
10:04, 18:04 and 20:04 Didcot Parkway to London Paddington will depart earlier at 10:02, 17:58 and 19:52, respectively.
19:04 Didcot Parkway to London Paddington will not call at Burnham.

Project Information:
The Crossrail Project is building the Elizabeth line to link Reading and Heathrow in the west with Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east, via new 21km tunnels under central London. This will increase London's rail capacity, cut passenger journey times across the city, encourage regeneration and generate significant employment opportunities.
This project is part of the London Railway Upgrade Plan, creating new connections and increasing capacity in peak hour by 30%.
