Passengers are being urged by Network Rail to check before travelling this late May Bank Holiday as work starts to improve the track layout at Leeds station.
Once the last train departs on Saturday 29th May, and throughout Sunday 30th May 2021, work will take place to remodel the track layout between Platform 4 and 6.
The first stage of work over the Bank Holiday weekend will see new overhead line equipment installed and some of the signalling equipment moved.
For this to be completed, Leeds station will be closed on Sunday 30th May, with buses replacing trains. Pick up and drop off will be carried out on New Station Street.
Passengers should check their journeys via National Rail Enquiries or with their train operator.

As platform 0 at Leeds railway station has been built. It will mainly be used for Northern to operate local electric services including to Skipton, Shipley, Bradford Forester Square and a future shuttle service to Leeds-Bradford Airport. And could also be used for other services that Northern would operate from Leeds platform 0 including to Huddersfield. And may even be used for Transpennine Express operating from Leeds to Manchester Piccadilly and Liverpool Lime Street.
