Histon Busway Track Partially Reopens

30/8/2019

 
Picture
Highways England, which is carrying out the bridge works on the A14, have advised that access for pedestrians and cyclists will reopen on 31 August following bridge widening at Impington. The upper part of the bridge works has overrun the scheduled program, and this will prevent buses from using this section at the moment. Therefore, buses will still follow the diverted route until November. More information, can be found here. 

There will be more cycle path closures needed in late October and Highways England have said they will share details in advance.

Queen Edith's Way Closure

30/8/2019

 
Picture
Work is due to start on creating the UK’s first Dutch-style roundabout next month – and it’s going to be in Cambridge! It will take 29 weeks (seven months) for the work to be completed, and the roundabout layout for the Fendon Road, Queen Edith’s Way and Mowbray Road junction will be transformed to influence slower approach and departure speeds, thereby reducing the speed of motor vehicles making it safer for cyclists and pedestrians.
 
This will affect bus users who rely on Citi 1, Citi 2 and 16A services. Find out more about diversions and timetable changes here.

Cycle September is running from 1-30 September 2019 and we'd like to invite you all to take part.

Cycle September is a fun, free competition where organisations compete to see which workplace can get the most staff to try cycling. There are loads of prizes (like a holiday to New Zealand!) to win by riding and encouraging friends and colleagues. For more information and to register, please see here.

Thanks to the Greater Cambridge Partnership it’s free for organisations in Cambridge to take part. Your organisation stands to benefit from healthier, happier, more productive employees, lower car parking costs and reduced local roads congestion, improved team cohesion and reduced sick leave.

Love to Ride have been running and refining the programme over the last 11 years and so far 400,000 people have taken part. They provide live stats and leader boards so you can track progress, compare performance and celebrate success within your organisation.

From early this month, Enterprise Car Club will become the official car club provider on behalf of Cambridgeshire County Council and Cambridge City Council. The club gives residents 24/7 pay-as-you-go access to 35 low-emission hybrid vehicles parked on streets, car parks and Enterprise Rent-A-Car branches across Cambridge City via a mobile app. Members can not only access the vehicles available across the city, but also the wider 1,200 cars and vans located in towns and cities across the UK. Individuals and businesses can sign up and be driving within a few hours, booking and accessing the vehicle with a smartphone app.

Cambridge residents can join for £20, plus get £20 free driving credit, with promotional code CAMB20. This saves new members £60 in their first year. Vehicles are available from £5.30 per hour including VAT and 21 pence per mile. To register, please see here.
