What We’re Doing About It
On Monday 4 December, heavy rain and flooding caused a landslip at Crewkerne tunnel, blocking the line between Salisbury and Exeter St Davids.
Work to clear the landslip on the weekend of Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 December was impacted by further adverse weather conditions.
The line between Salisbury and Yeovil Junction was reopened on Monday 11 December, with trains running between London Waterloo and Yeovil Junction.
However, trains will not be able to run between Yeovil Junction and Exeter St Davids until at least Wednesday 13 December.
As a result, we are advising customers not to attempt to travel between Yeovil Junction and Exeter St Davids until Wednesday 13 December.
Further updates will be provided as they become available.
For further information or onward travel advice please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.
