Train passengers are being warned of an upcoming week of disruption in Oxfordshire.

Chiltern Railways is urging customers to check journeys ahead of industrial action and engineering works. 

An overtime ban by the ASLEF union and engineering works in the Oxford area, as well as between Bicester, Banbury and Leamington, is significantly impacting services and will continue to do so this weekend.

The overtime ban continues from Monday (August 7) through to Saturday (August 12) and as a consequence some Chiltern services will be cancelled.

The company has removed some of these services in advance to reduce the risk of on-the-day cancellations.

On Saturday, August 12, Chiltern Railways will not be serving The Betfred Challenge Cup Final at Wembley Stadium.

Customers are advised to use London Underground services if they are planning on attending the event.
