About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Yapton crossing is predicted to be closed for about 13 h 30 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 103 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 22 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 08:00–09:00 in the morning and around 19:01–20:01 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

The crossing is on Yapton Lane near Yapton, West Sussex.

Yapton is a CCTV-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Arundel–Littlehampton line (Sussex route · ELR TBH2). 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.
