Overnight railway work, Barnt Green Station.
Dear Resident,
I am writing to let you know that we will soon be undertaking maintenance work on the railway near to your property. The team will be carrying out essential surveys to enable the design of the lifts at Barnt Green station.
The team will be using small powered hand tools, concrete drills, angle grinder, towers and lights in order to complete these surveys. I’m sorry if you are disturbed by this work in any way but please be assured, we will do our best to keep disruption to a minimum.
This work will take place between:
12:25am and 8:50am on Saturday 2 October 2021
12:25am and 8:50am from Monday 4 October until Wednesday 6 October 2021
12:25am and 8:50am on Saturday 9 October 2021
12:25am and 8:50am on Saturday 16 October 2021
12:25am and 8:50am on Saturday 23 October 2021
We will be accessing the work via Barnt Green station, Barnt Green, Birmingham B45 8JZ. There will also be welfare vans located on the station car park throughout the work.
We have to work at times that cause the least disruption to passengers and train services. We’re sorry that this means the work has to take place overnight and at weekends, which may impact you.
We know that any disruption is frustrating, but we will make every effort to minimise this as much as possible. Our teams will be briefed regularly on the importance of working responsibly where you live.

If you have any questions or concerns about the work taking place, please call the Network Rail national helpline on 03457 11 41 41 and I will get back in touch with you as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Aimee Chambers
