Work is continuing on analysing the data collected from the 2023 consultation, alongside carrying out further technical work, before going to our Executive Board in September 2023.

We had originally planned to go to June's Board cycle, however after further consideration we have decided to postpone to the following cycle in September. This provides the project team with the time to carry out further technical work on the Park and Ride. That we can bring all analysis and business case work relating to the proposed Park and Ride to the same level as the work we have done on the busway. We therefore only go to the Board once, with one comprehensive Outline Business Case, alongside recommendations on the preferred route, and preferred Park and Ride.


We are currently consulting on the preferred route options for the Waterbeach to Cambridge busway, including active travel provision, and a new Park & Ride at Waterbeach.

The Waterbeach to Cambridge Better Public Transport and Active Travel project is one of four corridor projects that aim to provide better public transport and active travel routes, such as walking and cycling, offering better connections and alternatives to car use for growing communities to the north or Cambridge.

The Waterbeach to Cambridge A10 corridor is one of the key radial routes into Cambridge. The corridor provides the main access into the city from the north-east and consists of the single carriageway A10 between Waterbeach and the main Strategic Road Network at Junction 33, Milton Interchange on the A14.

The Waterbeach to Cambridge project team is considering options for improvements to infrastructure to ensure that planned employment and housing growth, such as at Waterbeach New Town, can be accommodated without increasing levels of traffic in Cambridge.
