Midweek / Overnight engineering work.

Monday 1 to Wednesday 3 September

The lines will be closed from late evening between Basingstoke and Winchester on these dates.  The normal train service will run until the 2135 London Waterloo-Weymouth in one direction and the 2010 Weymouth-London Waterloo in the other.  From then, most services will be replaced by buses between Basingstoke and Winchester. The 2205 and 2305 services from London Waterloo will be diverted after Woking to run via Guildford, Havant and Fareham with longer journey times.

We are sorry that cycles, prams and items of bulky luggage cannot be carried on buses or taxis provided to replace train services during engineering work.
