About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Lodge Lane crossing is predicted to be closed for about 1 h 2 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 31 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 1 minute. 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 09:15–10:15 in the morning and around 12:00–13:00 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
