Wrexham line doubling date

Thanks to the Shrewsbury and Chester Rail Users' Association (SCRUA) we have 'hard' information relating to the long-delayed completion of the Saltney to Rossett line redoubling, work which was intended to have been completed more than 12 months ago. A letter from Network Rail advises that 13km of cabling needed to be replaced. Following negotiations with stakeholders a final package of timetabled works has been agreed to complete the outstanding works in order to
commission the project. The work involves closure of the railway between Chester and Wrexham between Friday 24 March and Saturday 1 April 2017 in order to connect the new signalling
infrastructure into the existing systems.
