What we are doing

BBV will be carrying out preparatory works, ahead of modifications, to the overhead power lines of the West Coast Main Line – near to Berkswell Station.
These works are due to take place from 27 February to 10 April, during overnight railway possessions, on consecutive Saturday nights.
A pile driver will be used to install steel pile foundations for the new overhead power line poles before the existing equipment can be dismantled and the new power line installed.
The West Coast Main Line will be closed between 10.00pm and 8.00am on each Saturday night. The workforce will access the railway through the rear of Berkswell Station car park and Truggist Lane compound.
