Subject: CITY DEAL - consultation launch - Western Orbital - Initial ideas
for a new bus link on or near the M11

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Western Orbital - Initial ideas for a new bus link on or near the M11

 

The Greater Cambridge City Deal is considering initial ideas for a new
'Western Orbital' bus link between the west and south of Cambridge, either
along or very near the M11.

 

Currently bus services between the west and south travel through the city
centre, which can be congested particularly at peak times. 

 

The first consultation on these initial ideas for a 'Western Orbital' bus
link launches on Monday, 8 February and will continue until Monday, 21 March
2016. The initial ideas for consultation include:

*         an additional Park & Ride at Junction 11 (Trumpington)

*         a Park & Ride or Park & Cycle at Junction 12 (Barton)

*         cycle improvements possibly including an 'orbital' link

*         'orbital' bus links around the outside of the city along or near
the M11, which would connect housing and employment sites including:
Trumpington Meadows, West Cambridge, Addenbrooke's Hospital, the Biomedical
Campus, the Science and Business Parks and the future Cambridge North Rail
Station.

 

Details of the initial ideas and the survey are available online at:
www.gccitydeal.co.uk/the-western-orbital
<http://www.gccitydeal.co.uk/the-western-orbital> . 

 

We will also be holding informal drop-in exhibitions in Cambridge and
villages around the M11. Please note these are come-and-go events not formal
presentations.
