About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Paignton North crossing is predicted to be closed for about 5 h 30 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 62 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 09:39–10:39 in the morning and around 19:59–20:59 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Paignton North is a cctv-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Exeter St. David's–Goodrington C.H.S line (Western route · ELR TOR). 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.
