Engineering Works to Affect Late-Night Rail Services Between Haywards Heath and Lewes.

From Tuesday 22 April to Thursday 24 April 2025, engineering work will be taking place between Haywards Heath and Lewes via Plumpton, resulting in the closure of some railway lines.

As a result, from 22:45 until the end of service each evening, replacement buses will operate in place of trains on this section of the route. Services between London Victoria and Hastings will be affected.

Passengers are advised to check their journey in advance using the National Rail Enquiries Journey Planner.

Evening trains between Haywards Heath and Lewes via Plumpton will be replaced by buses from April 22 to 24 due to engineering works. Plan ahead and allow extra time.
