Significant works on London Liverpool Street Train line.

Crewe Alexandra fans who are planning to use the train to attend our away match at Colchester United on 7th February should be aware of impending engineering works on the East Anglia to London Liverpool Street line.

From now until March 22nd, there will be significant works, meaning that the line is closed between Manningtree and Shenfield each weekend.

Maintenance work will see new tracks installed in Colchester, Marks Tey and Witham, and overhead lines replaced at Chelmsford.

Whilst bus services will replace the trains on those weekends, fans should be aware of the impact on journey times.

More details can be found on the Abellio Greater Anglia website. 

Colchester United are currently investigating ways in which the impact of these problems could be mitigated by alternative travel options - the official website will be updated as and when anything is confirmed.
