East Coast Digital Programme
We're working with colleagues and partners across the rail industry to modernise signalling on some of our Great Northern and Thameslink routes.
This means that traditional lineside signals, many of which were installed in the 1970s, will be replaced by state-of-the-art digital signalling – creating a better performing East Coast Main Line for our customers and everyone else who uses it.
There will be engineering works to allow this to be carried out. Here, you will find information about how your journey is affected. You can also find out more information about the programme, including answers to your frequently asked questions.
The next closure is currently planned will take place over the August bank holiday weekend. We will provide more details on this later in the spring.
We will provide the details on future closures on this page as we get closer to each one. Details about these are shown on our
planned works calendar, and on the
National Rail Journey Planner.
Are there any other works happening that could affect my journey?
Engineering works are taking place on other parts of the network which may also impact your journeys from time to time. Always check and plan your journey before you travel at nationalrail.co.uk.
There may also be other engineering works affecting this route on other dates. Details of those will always be shown in our planned works calendar.
Accessible travel and rail replacement buses
When we provide rail replacement buses or coaches for planned disruption, we use accessible vehicles. In circumstances when this is not possible, our Assisted Travel and customer facing teams will always identify an alternative journey plan to enable disabled customers to complete their journey. More information about accessible travel and rail replacement buses can be found here.
