    Dear Neighbour

    IMPROVEMENT WORKS - Farningham Road (Ref No: MPC/RG/VIR)

    I am writing to inform you that Network Rail needs to undertake essential works near your property.

    Works will be undertaken from approximately 01.40hrs to 04.00hrs on 16th May 2021

    This work will involve digging out wet beds (where water collects in the ballast) and renewing the sleepers using on track machinery, lighting, generators, and various types of small plant, which regrettably are noisy pieces of equipment.

    Under our licence conditions we are contractually obliged to work at times that cause the least disruption to train services. This means our work will often happen during the night and at weekends.

    The equipment we use means some disturbance is unavoidable, but we will make every effort to minimise any unnecessary noise.

    I hope this information is helpful and we apologise for any inconvenience these essential works may cause. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please visit www.networkrail.co.uk or telephone our 24-Hour National Helpline on 03457 11 41 41.

    Yours sincerely
