Upgrades in the Morley area will include track drainage and cabling work, whilst engineers in Dewsbury will replace and enhance telecommunications networks, allowing for future signalling improvements.
Additionally, upgrades will take place in Huddersfield over this weekend, 17/18 February, and next 24/25 February.

In order for the essential work to be carried out whist also keeping customers on the move, some trains will be diverted via different routes while others will be replaced by buses.
Jonathan Hepton, Sponsor on the Transpennine Route Upgrade, said: "The works being carried out across the Morley, Batley and Dewsbury areas are an important step in the progress being made by the Transpennine Route Upgrade team.
"We'd like to extend our thanks to passengers for their understanding and would like to encourage them to plan ahead and check before they travel."
The upgrades being carried out are part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU), a multi-billion-pound programme of railway upgrades that will enable faster, more reliable, greener services for customers travelling across the Pennines.
