Derby Resignalling
Derby Resignalling programme 22 July - 7 October 2018
What is Derby Resignalling?
From 22 July to 7 October 2018 (inclusive) the track and signalling in and around Derby Station is being improved and replaced.
Derby Station remains open throughout the work but customers travelling to, through and from Derby will experience some disruption and changes to their journey at different times during the work.
What these works will deliver:
- New platform (opposite existing Platform 6) to be used primarily by services heading to London and includes two new lifts and a First Class lounge. This work is already underway and will finish in early July – before the major possession begins.
- New track and signalling – The current infrastructure is in need of replacement. A common sense approach is to replacing the old signalling equipment whilst improving the track layout at the same time.
- Improved track layout - The new layout will remove a key bottleneck on the approach to Derby station from the south. At present, all trains to and from Birmingham and all trains to and from London have to cross one junction, which can delay services.
