Description
A fault with the signalling system between Bath Spa and Westbury means that fewer trains are able to run on some lines. As a result, trains running between these stations may be cancelled or delayed.
Disruption is expected until 20:00.
Customer advice:
If your train is cancelled, you may travel on either of the two services before, or two services after, your original train. If these are peak services or less flexible, you can still travel with your original ticket, at no extra cost.
Check before you travel:
You can check your journey using the National Rail Enquiries real-time Journey Planner.
Compensation:
You may be entitled to compensation if you experience a delay in completing your journey today. Please keep your train ticket and make a note of your journey, as both will be required to support any claim.
