MORE than a third of the £80 million spent on engineering work over the April 2-6 Easter weekend was focused on repairs and upgrades to the West Coast Main Line.
A total of £31 million was invested across the North West and Central region, including the ongoing resignalling programme at Birmingham New Street, the installation of two new bridges at Warrington Bank Quay, and the closure of the Chiltern Main Line to allow a replacement bridge to be slid into place in Bicester.
