- Salisbury-Exeter St Davids services will run once every two hours
- Basingstoke-Salisbury shuttle services will be suspended
- Brockenhurst-Lymington Pier services will be suspended

Journey planners will be fully up to date on Thursday 2 November. You should check before setting off on your journey and double check your return journey.
You may wish to consider if your journey on Thursday 2 November is entirely necessary and change your travel plans. If you do decide to travel, please check before you travel and allow extra time for your journey.
If you travel on Thursday morning, you should be aware that short notice changes to services may mean return journeys are delayed or cancelled. If you have a ticket for Thursday, you will be able to use this on Wednesday 1 November or Friday 3 November instead.
