“While every effort is made to keep disruption to a minimum, where it is safe to do so, we’re encouraging passengers to take extra care, check for updates and plan their journey before they travel.”

Government advice is to stay at home where possible and only travel for essential reasons, including for work, education or to buy essential goods.
