Work in the Newbury area is to begin in July and involves installing foundations for overhead lines that will power a new fleet of electric trains.
A public drop-in event displaying information on the project will be held at Northbrook Street from 9:30am – 4pm between 13 and 14 July.

Paul Fountaine, Network Rail's project director for line of route electrification, said: "Piling is an essential part of our work to electrify the railway, but it is also noisy. That's why we want to give our neighbours as much notice as possible and will continue working closely with both councils to do all we can to minimise the disruption.
"Installing these foundations means the residents of Newbury and its surrounding area are a step closer to the long-term benefits that electrification will bring."
