How the East West Rail project will make travel across Britain easier
东西铁路计划将重新建立剑桥和牛津之间的铁路连接，以改善东安格利亚和中央，南部和西部英国之间的联系。
服务将在三个“连接阶段”中引入
- 连接阶段一：服务将从牛津到Bletchley / Milton Keynes运行
- Connection Stage Two: Building on the work completed in Connection Stage One, services will extend from Oxford to Bedford
- Connection Stage three: This stage completes the full East West Rail connection, and will see services run from Oxford to Cambridge via Bedford and Bletchley.
By delivering the project in this way, we can create real benefits:
- Minimise disruption for local communities – we are looking to find the best way to reduce the length and severity of disruption for local communities
- Deliver the best value for taxpayers – by properly integrating the whole railway all the way from planning to operations we will find efficiencies and cost saving for the taxpayer
- Increase reliability of our services – the project is about more than just laying down steel and concrete: we’re thinking about how timetables and connections with other parts of the rail network will impact your journeys, so we can be confident of delivering reliable services from day one.
连接阶段一阶段
本节的发展-在两个阶段introduce direct rail passenger services between Oxford and Bletchley/Milton Keynes.
Phase 1
本阶段于2016年12月完成，并升级了牛津和Bicester之间的铁路连接。2015年10月开设了牛津大道和Bicester的铁路，连接牛津大道和Bicester的第一个新的一部分。
该项目是Chiltern Railways计划的一部分，为希望通过在牛津和伦敦马里韦尔邦之间引入新的服务来提供想要从牛津到伦敦的乘客提供更多选择。
More information on Chiltern Services between Oxford and London can be found on theChiltern Railways website.
