Engineering work is an essential part of maintaining and upgrading the rail network which we rely on every day. Find out why it's important here.
The majority of planned engineering work will take place overnight or at the weekend, but you can check our Upcoming engineering work section below to find out if you might be impacted by upcoming engineering work on our routes. The calendar shows planned engineering work impacting TransPennine Express services over the next 12 weeks.
If your journey is affected by engineering works, the calendar will show you any changes to train times, or if your service has been replaced by a rail replacement bus service.
We advise customers to always check their travel details before travelling to ensure the most up to date journey information has been received.
Live updates on information to services can be found on Journey Checker or on National Rail Enquiries.
Transpennine Route Upgrade
The Transpennine Route Upgrade is a multi-billion-pound programme of railway improvements happening in the North.
For services that will be impacted by the engineering work taking place for the Transpennine Route Upgrade, please check the Upcoming engineering work section below.
For further details about what is being delivered as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU), please visit the TRU website.
Upcoming major engineering work
A summary of upcoming engineering work affecting services on the TransPennine Express network can be found below:
Between Manchester, Huddersfield and Leeds Saturday 2 May to Tuesday 26 May
Major upgrades between Manchester, Huddersfield and Leeds during May and June. Saturday 2 May to Monday 25 May.
We’re upgrading the Transpennine Route (TRU) to deliver a faster, more reliable, and more sustainable railway across the North. This multi‑billion‑pound investment is modernising the railway so trains can run more smoothly, more reliably, and with lower carbon emissions. While some disruption is needed now, these improvements will mean better journeys for decades to come.
During this work we’re upgrading stations, improving drainage, upgrading bridges, viaducts and signalling.
