On today’s timetable, Navigation Road crossing is predicted to be closed for about 8 h 26 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 226 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.
Closures cluster around 09:07–10:07 in the morning and around 13:10–14:10 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Navigation Road is a cctv-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Stockport–Altrincham line (North West route · ELR CDM1). 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.
