THERE has been disruption on the Chester Merseyrail service today (Friday, December 29).

Trains were delayed and cancelled on the Chester-Liverpool line after a passenger was earlier taken ill at Bache.

In addition, a shortage of crew has meant a number of services during the afternoon will be affected, with the 2.01pm Chester-Moorfields, 2.41pm Moorfields-Chester and 3.31pm Chester-Moorfields trains all being cancelled.

People planning to travel on a Merseyrail train are advised to check their journey on https://www.merseyrail.org/journey-planning/plan-your-journey/service-updates/ for any potential news on disruption.
