Network Rail will begin the final phase of the North/South Wales Enhancement project, on Wrexham – Chester line. Funded by Welsh Government, this major rail enhancement will deliver 8 km of track redoubling between Wrexham and Chester. Once commissioned this spring, the upgrade work will unlock the potential for more frequent services and shorter journey times between Cardiff and Holyhead, subject to additional fleet being made available and limited-stop services being specified in the future.
As part of the project’s final phase, work will be undertaken on the railway between Rossett Junction and Saltney Junction, which will affect passengers travelling between Wrexham and Chester and from North Wales to Chester.
With work at Broad Oak and Balderton underway and due to be complete by on 24 March, work will also take place on two other level crossings in the area until April.
