Easter Travel Disrupted By Engineering

Postby paul_lufc on Fri Mar 21, 2008 1:56 am

Road and rail users are being warned about severe delays in the build-up to one of the worst ever weekends for travel in the UK.

Major traffic jams are expectedNetwork Rail risks alienating thousands of Easter travellers as they look to complete 30 major engineering projects across the Easter weekend.

After delays to the company's New Year programme of works, Liberal Democrat transport spokesman Norman Baker described the decision to cut services as "completely mad".

He said: "These weekends are also the time when many people who do not normally use the railways try them out.

"What is the likelihood of these people travelling by rail again if it turns into the journey from hell?"
