NETWORKRAIL: The latest information from NetworkRail indicates that they need to undertake essential improvement works to erect new fencing behind properties on Station Road in the village, in the vicinity of the Sutton and Barnby Moor level crossing East Coast mainline. These improvements are a vital part of a strategy to deliver a better railway system throughout the country. The fencing adjacent to these properties has been risk assessed by NetworkRail’s Lineside Engineers and as a result, need to be renewed.
The work will involve removing the existing railway boundary fence, and replace it with a new 1.5m high steel post and wire fencing with stock netting fence. Some locations may require the removal of fly tipping/debris and the cutting of vegetation to allow the new fencing to be erected.
The workforce will be operating over the next three Sundays, starting on Sunday 13th November between the hours of 00:01 to 07:30. NetworkRail apologise for any inconvenience these workings may cause.
