NETWORK Rail’s Anglia route is calling on thousands of lineside neighbours across the region to sign up to its digital notifications service so they can more easily be notified of any railway works that might impact them in 2026 and in the future.

By signing up for the new digital notification service, neighbours will receive quicker real-time updates about work that may impact them, including last-minute changes. They’ll also receive general updates about Network Rail, safety information, and surveys to help improve the service offered.

Information sent to lineside neighbours typically would include details of works that are likely to be noisy or could involve a road closure or diversion if works are taking place to maintain or renew a bridge or level crossing.

When you sign up, you’ll stop getting printed letters and start receiving quicker, more detailed notifications by email, which is also better for the environment.
