On today’s timetable, Whittlesea crossing is predicted to be closed for about 5 h 45 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 73 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 9 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 07:04–08:04 in the morning and around 19:21–20:21 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
Whittlesea is a manual gate crossing (MGH) on the March Up Yard GBRF–Peterborough line (Anglia route · ELR EMP). A signaller or crossing keeper closes the gates across the road 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.
