On today’s timetable, Wide Haugh crossing is predicted to be closed for about 2 h 30 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 76 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 3 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 07:43–08:43 in the morning and around 12:00–13:00 in the middle of the day. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.
The crossing is near Hexham, Northumberland.
