If you do need to travel, please follow our advice for travelling during hot weather:
- Check before you travel and allow extra time for your journey.
- Carry a bottle of water with you and aim to stand in the shade where possible when waiting for your train.
- If you feel unwell, do not board a train. Please speak to a member of staff or use a help point for further assistance.
- If you feel unwell onboard, please speak to a member of staff. Do not pull the emergency alarm - help can be provided more quickly at a station platform.
