Between the dates stated in the thread title, all lines through Lewes will be closed to allow for a major signalling upgrade (specifically, completing the process of moving all signalling control to Three Bridges from Lewes and Newhaven signal boxes).
Unlike the previous weekend closures in the area, the line between Falmer and Lewes will also be closed, meaning that connections from the East Coastway into London will be fairly difficult, especially during peak times. Westbound services from Ore/Hastings, I believe, will be terminating and re-starting from Polegate.
It states on the Southern website that shuttle services will operate between Brighton and Falmer, running every 40 minutes. With no available points to allow for a cross from the eastbound line to the westbound line, how will this shuttle work? Will bi-directional working be implemented, or is this simply a mistake?
