About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Drayton crossing is predicted to be closed for about 11 h 1 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 114 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 18 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 10:53–11:53 in the morning and around 17:35–18:35 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Drayton is a cctv-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Barnham–Chichester Reception line (Sussex route · ELR TBH2). 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.
