Manually-controlled barrier with obstacle detection level crossing on the North and East route (ELR HUL1).
| No trains in the next 30 minutes. |
On today’s timetable, Melton Lane crossing is predicted to be closed for about 0 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 0 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 0 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.
Longest closure so far today: 9.5 min (00:32–00:41, 2 trains), timed from trains actually seen on the signalling wire — the window edges use the same per-type margins as the forecast, since barrier positions aren't in any feed we can read.
No pronounced peak — closures are spread through the day.
Melton Lane is a manually-controlled barrier with obstacle detection crossing (MCBOD) on the Goole–Hull Station Sidings line (North and East route · ELR HUL1). An obstacle-detection system scans the crossing and confirms it is clear before the barriers lower automatically. 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.
We score this page against what actually happened on the railway — over the last 7 days that covered 751 trains through this crossing.
43.8% 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 ±2s (9 in 10 within 11s). This scores when trains pass — barrier movements aren't in the public feeds we can score against.
