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.

Bus stops and route between St Ives and Huntingdon
Letter in this week's Hunts Post asking for a bus stop at Huntingdon Garden & Leisure, and for service B to return to its older route via Ramsey Road. (Hunts Post, 26 June, page 8)
Me too. Houghton is a big village, so you'd think the bus companies would want to tap into that potential. I read some months ago that Houghton & Wyton Parish Council were in negotiations about getting a new bus stop on the main road close to their village where the guided buses could call. See this article http://www.huntspost.co.uk/news/latest-news/50_000_price_ticket_for_houghton_stop_along_guided_busway_1_1516864
It has always surprised me that none of the guided buses are routed via Houghton on their way to/from Huntingdon.
