Platform 3 is the Cross City line platform which crosses over the WCML (Trent Valley lines).
From West Midland Railway:
It looks like the Trent Valley will be closed 15-23 July. Avanti are diverting via the West Midlands with a reduced frequency.
From West Midland Railway:
Due to essential structural repairs, Network Rail have confirmed they will be fully replacing the Platform 3 overbridge at Lichfield Trent Valley station later this year.
The current bridge, which is in a state of disrepair, will be removed via crane in early July as part of planned engineering works. A temporary, accessible footbridge will be installed to maintain access to Platform 2 for services towards London Euston. The replacement bridge will be installed over the Christmas and New Year period.
As a result of this work:
Between Saturday 15 July - Sunday 23 July
From Monday 24 July until January 2024
- Rail replacement buses will operate between Lichfield Trent Valley - Blake Street.
- Rail replacement buses will also operate between Rugby - Stafford and Hednesford - Rugeley Trent Valley and Coventry - Nuneaton between Saturday 15 July - Friday 21 July.
