The works are taking place in the Whittlesey area, and services between Liverpool and Norwich will be altered for much of today. The line is closed between Peterborough and Ely after a defect was found in the tracks.

A spokesman for East Midlands Railway said: "If you are travelling between Peterborough and Norwich, we have arranged buses to run Peterborough - Ely and you can then use your EMR ticket to travel on other services between Ely and Norwich.

"If you are travelling between Norwich and Peterborough, you can use your EMR ticket to travel on other services between Norwich and Ely, we then have buses running to Peterborough.

"We have relaxed some of our usual ticket restrictions. If you hold an Advance Ticket which is usually valid on a specific train you may use it to travel on any of our trains on this route."
