The Meldreth to Melbourn Underpass

We need your thoughts on the pedestrian underpass between Station Road, Melbourn and Meldreth Railway Station.

We would like to gather your thoughts on this area and how you would like it to be as it is an important link between the villages and the station. This survey is being carried out to gather feedback, ideas, suggestions and to seek volunteers from both communities. The project is a collaboration - to be led by the residents of Melbourn and Meldreth - with support from the Parish, District and County Councils, the partners within the Community Safety Board and input from students at Melbourn Village College. Your responses to this survey will influence not only improvements to the underpass and the green area around it, but also ongoing upkeep and maintenance of this space. We look forward to hearing your views and please try to complete it online if possible!
