The Cambridgeshire Guided Busway linking St Ives, Cambridge and Trumpington opened on 7 August 2011. This blog is now closed to new posts and comments. It was set up for people who travelled the busway, either as bus passengers, or users of the cycle/footpath such as pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders. The blog remains visible as a historic record. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to the blog over the past decade.

Guided bus good for Huntingdonshire
Writing in the Hunts Post ( 28 December, page 6) Bob Burn-Murdoch discusses the beneficial effect of the busway on Huntingdonshire generally, and especially St Ives. For months after the busway opened 'St Ives was thronged with crowds of people from the big city'. It's our big chance, he says - we offer a range of shops in a town centre visitors can walk through in a few minutes. Bob also notes that Cambridge has more visitors that it knows what to do with, but now some of them can be directed to St Ives via the busway. Hopefully they will discover, not just St Ives and its excellent museum of which Bob is the curator, but also Huntingdonshire's other historic towns and villages.
