What we are doing

We will be working on the embankment between the A413 London Road and the existing Chiltern railway line throughout two weekends in February. These works can only be undertaken during a closure of the rail line which is taking place over two weekends in February for engineering works between Aylesbury and London.

We will be removing the abutment and foundations of the former footbridge at Small Dean which was demolished in December 2021. As this work is directly adjacent to the rail line this can only be done under a rail possession to ensure this work is carried out safely.

We will also be carrying out vegetation clearance and embankment grading works during these possessions.

Bus replacement services will be in operation throughout this period, please check www.chilternrailways.co.uk/ for more information.

A section of the Chiltern railway line will be closed during the following times:

• 1am on Saturday 4th to 6am on Monday 6th of February
• 1am on Saturday 18th to 6am on Monday 20th February

These dates may be subject to change due to circumstances outside of our control.
