Significant works on London Liverpool Street line.
Colchester United fans who use the trains to get to the Weston Homes Community Stadium on matchdays, should be aware of impending engineering works on the East Anglia to London Liverpool Street line.
From this coming weekend through to March 22nd, there will be significant works, meaning that the line is closed between Manningtree and Shenfield each weekend.
Maintenance work will see new tracks installed in Colchester, Marks Tey and Witham, and overhead lines replaced at Chelmsford.
Whilst bus services will replace the trains on those weekends, fans should be aware of the impact on journey times.
