Worst times to cross today

About this crossing

The crossing is on Church Lane in Northwood Green, Gloucestershire.

Westbury on Severn is a automatic half-barrier crossing (AHB) on the Gloucester–Llanwern Exchange Sdgs line (Western route · ELR SWM2). The approaching train itself triggers the closure at a fixed point on its approach. 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.
