As far as I know, the following semaphore-signalled areas are due to be resignalled this year:

Gilberdyke- Ferriby (on the Selby-Hull line, 5 boxes plus at least 2 gateboxes)
Wherry Lines (Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth branches, 7 boxes plus 3 gateboxes)
North Wales Coast (phase 1, Rockliffe Hall- Llandudno Jn , at least 7 boxes- is LJ going as well?)

Are there any more due to go?

Mostyn has already gone.

Rockcliffe hall remains to interface Chester PSB with the new workstation. Or at least it did in the latest version of the scheme I saw.

Llandudno junction remains, and doesn't go until phase 4.

Reports elsewhere stating that Ferriby- Gilberdyke has been delayed, and won't be commissioned at Easter.

No Semaphores gone yet though. Indeed, a couple of new ones have been installed within the last year or so, one at Oulton Broad North and one at Cantley
