Received from GWR today:
Due to a rare red warning of extreme heat, we are warning customers to only travel if essential on Wednesday and Thursday.

Extreme heat can cause rails to expand and buckle, so when temperatures reach certain thresholds, trains must run more slowly to keep services safe. This will mean fewer trains and slightly longer journey times during the warmest periods of each day.

Prolonged high temperatures can also affect equipment on our older regional train fleet, including engines and cooling systems. As a result there may be some short-notice changes or cancellations, particularly during the hottest parts of the day.

Due to short notice changes, industry information systems will not show the correct train timetable until the day of travel.

To help customers, we will be easing ticket restrictions for those with tickets to travel on Wednesday 24 and Thursday 25 June; tickets for Wednesday and Thursday can be used on Tuesday 23 June and up to and including Friday 26 June.

For customers in the Thames Valley, we have also made changes to local stopping services. This is to reduce the need to use points, which move trains between tracks, and reduce the risk of points failure. Services serving Slough, Maidenhead and Twyford will see alterations.

We would be grateful if you could share our core messaging below via your own communication channels:
• Only travel if necessary on Wednesday and Thursday: The Met Office says the high temperatures could lead to serious illness
• Check before you travel: Where possible, plan ahead and check journey times closer to the time of travel, particularly for the hottest part of the day.
• Allow extra time: Journeys are likely to take longer than usual, so build this into your plans, especially if you have a connection to make or need to be somewhere by a specific time.
• Bring water: Carry water with you, particularly if you expect to be travelling during the hottest periods or waiting on platforms.
• If you feel unwell, don't board: If you are waiting for a train and feel unwell due to the heat, please speak to a member of staff, who will be able to help.

Thanks to all who attended the Bramley Parish Council Extraordinary meeting last night – it was amazing to see so many of the community who are very clearly passionate about the Bramley environment. Bramley Parish Council is working hard to protect the historic and rural character of Bramley which this 650 housing development would destroy. 182 of you made your views very clear last night, and still made it home in time for the football!

There is still time to register your comments if you have not already done so. You can do this via the Borough Council planning portal https://publicaccess.basingstoke.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=summary&keyVal=TEAONZCRIXY00 or alternatively you can email [email protected]. Please be aware that it might take a few days for your comments to appear on the portal – it is taking planning officers some time to work through all the comments coming through.

URGENT - Can You Help Ensure Every Resident Has a Voice?
The Parish Council is aware that some residents, particularly those who are not active on social media, may not yet be aware of the proposed development or the Extraordinary Parish Meeting being held in the Village Hall on 17 June.
We want to ensure that everyone in the community has the opportunity to learn about the proposal, consider its potential impact, and attend the meeting if they wish.
To help achieve this, we are seeking volunteers to assist with the delivery of information leaflets across the village. Deliveries will need to be completed by, or over, the weekend of 13–14 June.
If you are able to help, please email [email protected] with:
• Your name
• Your preferred road(s) for delivery
• Any additional roads you would be willing to cover if your first choice has already been allocated
The more volunteers who come forward, the smaller the area each person will need to cover. Even a small amount of your time can help ensure that all residents are informed and able to participate in this important community discussion.
Thank you for your support.

COOPERS LANE ROAD CLOSURE - 22nd May

Further to recent concerns about the changing date of the road closure at Coopers Lane, and a Bramley PC letter of complaint, we have received the following from HCC Highways:

'Please accept my sincere apologies for the changes to the proposed dates, and for the operational and communication issues relating to the works at Cooper Lane. I appreciate the frustration and inconvenience this may have caused.
I can confirm that the works have now been re-programmed to take place on Friday 22nd May, weather permitting. The works are expected to be completed within one day, with a second visit planned for the 29th May 2026 to apply a lockdown coat. The road will be closed anytime between approximately 05:00 and 22:00 hours.
As this type of work is extremely weather dependent, there remains a possibility that the date may change again. Should this occur, we will endeavour to provide an update to you and all stakeholders as soon as possible.
Information letters will be hand delivered to residents and businesses 24 - 48 hours prior to the works taking place.'
