About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Barton Road crossing is predicted to be closed for about 44 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 15 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 2 minutes. Freight paths scheduled “as required” (most don’t run on any given day) aren’t counted here; when one does run, the live timeline above shows it.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 09:28–10:28 in the morning and around 13:28–14:28 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

The crossing is on College Road near South End, Lincolnshire, next to Thornton Abbey station.

Barton Road is a automatic barrier locally monitored crossing (ABCL) on the Humber Oil Refinery–Barton-on-Humber line (North and East route · ELR BAR). The approaching train itself triggers the closure at a fixed point on its approach. Forecasts here combine the working timetable with live train-movement data (and live signalling where the crossing has it), so they reflect actual running including delays and freight, though they can still be wrong when the network is disrupted.
