About this crossing

On today’s timetable, Wadehall Old Dam crossing is predicted to be closed for about 50 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 30 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 06:48–07:48 in the morning and around 16:21–17:21 in the afternoon. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

Wadehall Old Dam is a user-worked with stop lights crossing (UWCMSL) on the Halesworth–Oulton Broad South line (Anglia route · ELR ESK). 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.
