A bit more information on plans to sort out the bridge from a Network Rail Asset Engineer: The proposed intervention is to use a geopolymer in the bank and the area behind the abutment to stabilise the transition between the two assets. There are some elements that I need to detail through with the proposed geopolymer, organic content of the embankment and EA approvals etc, but I am working to complete the works in late March into April.

So a 20mph TSR▸ until then, probably with regular inspections?

They’ve got some monitoring equipment there, so I’m guessing they can keep a good eye on it remotely. Could go back up to a 50mph restriction if a bit of tamping is done perhaps? But certainly not back up to line speed until the work detailed is undertaken.

08:56 Great Malvern to London Paddington due 11:24 will no longer call at Slough.
It has been delayed at Worcester Shrub Hill and is now 17 minutes late.
This is due to congestion.
Further Information
[...]
Last Updated:06/02/2023 11:08 Departed Great Malvern at 09:14, 18 late. Departed Shrub Hill at 09:52, 36 late. At 11:08, when JourneyCheck was "last updated", it was awaiting the single line at Charlbury. Departed at 11:09, some 58 late. Why is JourneyCheck so patchy? |

What do you mean by 'patchy'?
My guess is that was posted just following the decision not to call at Slough. So a sensible update.

Delays to services between Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill
Due to a speed restriction over defective track disruption is expected until the end of the day.
Train services between Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill may be delayed by up to 25 minutes.
Additional Information
An emergency speed restriction is in place in the Worcester area until further notice. This mostly affects trains between Worcester Shrub Hill and Worcestershire Parkway, but may lead to congestion in the greater Worcester area. Most morning peak services appear to have suffered some minor delays but services seem to be running smoothly at the moment (12:55) |

16-seater minibus turned up for the RRB▸ from Oxford to Worcester last night (2250ish from Oxford). Bit of a downgrade from an IET▸ as I’m sure even Broadgage would agree. I felt sorry for the passenger who was travelling on it as far as Evesham…

Due to a train hitting on obstruction on the line between Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill all lines are blocked. As a result, trains may be cancelled or delayed.
Disruption is expected until the end of the day. 17:34 London Paddington to Hereford due 20:26 is being delayed at Oxford.
This is due to this train hitting an obstruction on the line. Realtime trains suggests it got beyond Wolvercote Junction where its last timing was 18:33 (now 20:15). Realtime trains also suggseting the 17:26 WOF: PAD» has been held at Charlbury since 18:38. |

Seems quite serious…tweet from someone on the train I am on this train, amazing work by those working on board. Huge impact on the train, luckily reports from train manage is that there are no injuries. |

Thought to be masonry from an overbridge.

Oxford Mail is reporting a road incident nearby: Yarnton Road both ways blocked due to bridge struck by vehicle near the railway bridge. Speculation is never helpful and could just be coincidence. |

I have just returned from Paddington where I was hoping to board the 19:50 to Hereford.
They announced at Paddington that there was a bridge collapse in the Hanborough area and there would be no through trains until the end of the day. I’m going to try again tomorrow and may have to be picked up at Oxford instead.
