Train services between Braintree and Witham in Essex have been suspended for the rest of the evening because of staff availability.

A spokesman from Greater Anglia said that the disruption was “due to a member of train crew being unavailable” and was affecting services between the two stations for the rest of the evening.

As a result, replacement buses are running between the stations in both directions.

Greater Anglia apologised for anyone who was affected by the incident.
