RAIL services in Gloucestershire will be affected by improvement work this weekend and month.
GWR services will be impacted by work taking place at weekends, the train operating company said.
Network Rail plans to replace tracks in the Cheltenham and Worcester areas.
Train services will be impacted between Gloucester and Worcester this weekend, as well as on October 12 and 13, October 20 and until 11 o’clock on October 27.
Replacement buses are planned by GWR between Gloucester and Cheltenham Spa or Worcester Foregate Street.
Buses are also planned to replace CrossCountry trains between Birmingham New Street and Gloucester, plus between Bromsgrove and Cheltenham Spa.
Train services between Worcestershire Parkway and Great Malvern will also be impacted by engineering work on the weekend of October 12 and 13 and October 20.
GWR customer services director Rachel Geliamassi said: “This improvement work forms part of an ongoing programme of maintenance, helping to ensure we can continue to provide consistent and reliable services.
“To keep people moving as quickly and efficiently as we can, however, while this work is completed, buses will replace trains and journey times may be a little longer, so please do check before you travel.”
