Cambourne to Cambridge busway application submitted
Cambourne to Cambridge busway application submitted
We have applied for a Transport and Work Act Order to the Department for Transport (DfT) for a new busway, travel hub and path for walkers and cyclists linking Cambourne to Cambridge.
The scheme would connect existing and new communities to the west of Cambridge with the city via the new Bourn Airfield development, Hardwick, Coton and the West Cambridge site. The new travel hub at Scotland Farm would be easy to access from the A428 and help car drivers switch to a bus before they hit congestion into the city.
Our scheme would give more travel choices, making it quicker, easier and more reliable to get to where you need to go.
The submission follows four rounds of public consultation as well as extensive community and stakeholder engagement on the route since 2015.
