Network Rail Plans to Build New Private Access Road at East Road, Langford

Network Rail has announced plans to construct a new private access road east of the East Coast Main Line, aimed at providing an alternative to crossing the railway at East Road, Langford. The proposed road is intended to replace the current vehicular access to the level crossing at East Road.

The construction of this new road is part of Network Rail's broader plans for the East Road level crossing. The company is seeking legal powers and deemed planning permission to close the existing vehicular access to the level crossing at East Road. The application for this new private access road is made under the Transport and Works Act 1992.

Currently, the level crossing at East Road is accessible by vehicles. However, Network Rail's plans aim to remove the need for vehicles to cross the railway at East Road, improving safety and efficiency in the area.

At the moment, there is no publicly available information about the status of the East Road (Alternative Vehicle Access) application under the Transport and Works Act 1992. Searches have not yielded any specific details or updates regarding this application.

While there is no specific information available about the East Road project, Network Rail is known to be engaged in various level crossing closure and safety improvement projects, including consultations and design updates for other crossings in Wales (Pensarn and Prestatyn), and local infrastructure projects like bridge replacements.

For the latest official updates on the status of the East Road (Alternative Vehicle Access) application, it is recommended to contact Network Rail directly or check the local authority planning portals. Alternatively, you may find updates on the Transport and Works Act Orders register, where such applications and their progress would be recorded officially.
