Customers advised to check before they travel
Due to action short of a strike called by the ASLEF trade union from 7 – 12 August inclusive, there will be some cancellations on many Greater Anglia routes on all of those days (although most routes will only see a small number of cancellations).
A full list of the cancellations for Monday 7 August to Friday 11 August is included at the end of this release. The cancellations for Saturday 12 August will be added to the Greater Anglia homepage after they are confirmed.
As a result of these planned service alterations, passengers are advised to check their journey details before they travel between Monday 7 August and Saturday 12 August inclusive.
Passenger assistance arrangements will be available as usual. Anyone requiring assistance should plan their journey and book assistance in advance if possible.
Jamie Burles, Greater Anglia managing director, said:
“While the vast majority of services will be running as normal during the period affected by action short of a strike, there will be some cancellations across our network.
“We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by these service alterations and advise customers to plan ahead and check before they travel.
“The rail industry is working hard to resolve the current disputes and reach an agreement.”
