Description of Incident

Engineering work is taking place between St James Park and Exmouth, closing all lines.

Buses will replace trains between Exeter St Davids and Exmouth. A mixture of faster, limited stop buses and buses calling at all stations will run.

Trains will run between Paignton / Exeter St Davids and Exeter Central / St James Park only.

Please note: Due to a rugby fixture at Sandy Park, buses will not call at Digby & Sowton or Newcourt during the early afternoon / evening. If you are travelling for the rugby fixture, you should use the dedicated Stagecoach “Route Chiefs” buses that depart from Exeter St Davids and from Exeter City Centre (not Exeter Central station).
