About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Chantry Road crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 45 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 19 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 7 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 06:25–07:25 in the morning and around 15:39–16:39 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Chantry Road is a remotely-monitored manually-controlled barrier crossing (MCBR) on the Ipswich–Sizewell TCA line (Anglia route · ELR ESK). A signaller monitors the crossing, confirms it is clear, and lowers the barriers ahead of each train. 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.

How accurate is this forecast?

We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 109 trains through this crossing.

100.0% of observed passes were being warned about on this page when they passed, and 100.0% of the warnings we could verify came true.

Typical timing error was ±28s (9 in 10 within 104s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
