This disclosure relates to a system and method for recommending intelligent railway network access plans and modified access plans based on current status of execution of tasks and train timetables. Herein, the system and method need to consider multiple variables including train timetable changes, activity efficiencies etc. to derive an overall optimum access management solution for the railway network. They can interface with existing operational timetables and cost management systems. It is to be noted that the disclosure herein uses existing data sets for operations and cost data. The cost data is manipulated to identify fixed and variable costs and variability of variable costs with access duration and activity bundling. A trade-off between cost and value is considered which results in a longer continuous time window being available for maintenance, less visits to same location to complete a maintenance task, less time spent in setup/unwind activities and higher labour utilization.
