There are no planned engineering works this week.
Chester line:
Essential engineering work will be taking place at Bache for four weeks from Sunday 19 March.
The last two trains from Liverpool Central to Chester will terminate at Bache. Bache to Chester will be a rail replacement bus service.
Due to roadworks in Liverpool City Centre as part of Liverpool City Council’s Connectivity Scheme, rail replacement buses will no longer stop at Liverpool Central or Liverpool Lime Street. They will be stopping at Moorfields and James Street only (depending on which services are affected) to minimise disruption to Merseyrail services.
Full times of trains and rail replacement buses can be found in the Journey Planner.
