Sunday working to get rail back on track

Work continues to restabilise the railway embankment at Wombridge in Telford

Network Rail are digging out material that’s slipped to create a new profile for the slope.

Large ‘steps’ will be cut into the slope before engineers backfill it with over 12,000 tonnes of stone, helping to reduce the gradient and strengthen the embankment.

The aim is to reopen the railway between Wolverhampton and Shrewsbury by Easter
