Engineering work is taking place between Barking and Grays via Rainham and between Upminster and Pitsea via Ockendon, closing all lines.

As a result of this, trains between Southend Central and London Fenchurch Street via Ockenden will be diverted and run non stop between Pitsea and Upminster in both directions.

Trains between Grays and London Fenchurch Street via Rainham will NOT run in both directions.

Replacement road transport will operate between Barking and Grays via Rainham and between Upminster and Pitsea via Ockendon.
