We aim to reduce the impact of our work on your train services when looking after our railway. Like this summer, when we avoided 60 weekends of disruption by carrying out £20m of work in just three weeks. For better journeys. In collaboration with @Se_Railway @NetworkRailSE

This summer we invested £20m upgrading the line between London Charing Cross and Waterloo East. Carrying out lots of work in three weeks saved 60 weekends of disruption. All for better journeys.

✨Just over a week ago, we successfully completed a £20 million renewal project which involved closing Charing Cross and Waterloo East station for 22 days. 🛤️During that time, we renewed old tracks, platforms, avoided 60 weekends of closure and more. 🙏Thank you to all our partners for making the project a success and to our customers for bearing with us while we carried out these essential works. @Se_Railway @VolkerRailUK @VolkerFitzUK @networkrail #NetworkRail #SoutheasternRailway #RailwayUpgrade #EngineeringExcellenc
