What's Going On
Due to signalling staff being unavailable between Ryde Pier Head and Shanklin all lines will be blocked. Train services running to and from these stations will be cancelled. Disruption is expected until 07:00 on 28/11/22.

What We're Doing About It 
We have been informed that there is a shortage of signalling staff on the Island line, this means that buses replace trains between the hours of 19:00 and 07:00 until the morning of Monday 28th November.

Replacement buses will be in operation, journey planners have been updated to show the bus timetable.

Southern Vectis bus ticket acceptance is in place between 19:00 and 09:00 each day until 28th November.

For further information or onward travel advice please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.

We are very sorry for any delay that this may cause to your journey.

Network Rail and South Western Railway are set to begin a complex programme of vital maintenance and improvements on Ryde Pier, to keep Island Line services running long into the future.

This means the section of the Island Line between Ryde Esplanade and Ryde Pier Head will be closed from Sunday 30 October 2022 until Spring 2023. During this time, Network Rail engineers will strengthen the pier and extend its life by up to 60 years. South Western Railway will also be undertaking work at the same time, making efficient use of the closure.

The Island Line will operate a shuttle bus service between Ryde Pier Head and Ryde Esplanade during the closure. 

Please see here for further information.
