There’s just under a month to go before vital engineers work begins on the Windsor line. The 7-day closure will run from Saturday 22 to Friday 28 March, with the line closed between Staines and Windsor.
During this time, Network Rail’s team of engineers will lay over 700m of new track on the 174-year-old Black Potts Railway Bridge which crosses the River Thames, just a mile away from Windsor Castle. Engineers will also be carrying out work at May’s Level Crossing in Datchet, widening the pedestrian walkway on one side of the crossing.
While the line between Staines and Windsor will be closed all week, over the weekend of 22-23 March, a range of other vital work will be completed in the wider area around Staines-upon-Thames. This includes:
Track upgrades and maintenance on the line between Staines and Egham and from Staines to Ascot and Woking.
Structural repairs to the bridge over the River Wey near Addlestone
Installing new sleepers in the Feltham area
