TRAIN lines between New Milton and Hinton Admiral have reopened after flooding earlier today.

However, train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed or revised and disruption is expected until 8pm.

To assist travellers with their journey their ticket will be accepted, at no extra cost, on the CrossCountry services between Bournemouth and Basingstoke and the Yellow Buses service on routes 1, 1a and 1B.

SWR has also arranged standby replacement buses to run between Bournemouth and Southampton Central in both directions should the flooding return and block the lines again.

For further information or onward travel advice please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.
