Engineering work is taking place between Birmingham New Street and Water Orton, closing some lines. As a result, the following changes will be made:
Trains between Birmingham New Street and Leicester / Nottingham / Cambridge / Stansted Airport will start from and terminate at Coleshill Parkway. Replacement buses will run between Birmingham New Street and Coleshill Parkway.
Trains will be able to run between Birmingham New Street and the north east / Scotland but will be diverted via an alternative route. This will extend the normal journey time by up to 60 minutes.
