Appendix C Constraints and issues on the route
Capacity and operational constraints
A Westerleigh Junction – Bristol Parkway: two track section on highly utilised converging route B 5 AHB level crossings north of Cheltenham restrict linespeed to 100mph C Weston-super-Mare loop: single line restricts capacity and flexibility D Dorchester West – Castle Cary: single line sections prevent significant increases in train service frequency E Signalling headways between Newton Abbot and Plymouth F Royal Albert Bridge: single line section linking Devon and Cornwall G St Pinnock and East Largin viaducts: single line sections
Other Issues on Route
1 Somerset Levels – flooding
2 Flood plain to the north of Exeter requires constant monitoring
3 Dawlish Sea Wall defences require constant monitoring and enhanced maintenance
