Description

Engineering work is taking place in the Filton Abbey Wood area, closing some lines.

Filton Abbey Wood - Bristol Temple Meads:

All day on Saturday, trains between Filton Abbey Wood and Bristol Temple Meads will not run.

• The 14:12 Bristol Temple Meads to Avonmouth will not run

• The 14:46 Avonmouth to Weston-super-Mare will start from Bristol Temple Meads
