North Cotswolds line improvement works
Network Rail will be carrying out extensive engineering works this summer as they restore the single line between Charlbury and Evesham to a double track. The first phase of the improvement work will happen over six weeks during the school summer holidays, and during this time sections of the railway line will be closed -
Monday 20th July to Friday 31st July and from Monday 24th August to Friday 28th August
The railway will be closed between Oxford and Worcester, and trains will be replaced by alternative road transport - usually coaches or minibuses - with longer journey times.
Monday 3rd August until Friday 21st August
The railway will be closed between Moreton-in-Marsh and Evesham, and a revised train service will operate to and from Oxford, with alternative road transport from Moreton-in-Marsh to Evesham.
To ensure connections are provided with the alternative road transport or amended train service there will be alterations to the times of some Cotswold Line Railbus services from Charlbury and Kingham stations.
On this page you can view the full Railbus timetable and download a summary of the changes for the period of the engineering works.
