Melbourn Greenway

The Greater Cambridge Partnership is now getting into the detailed planning of the Melbourn Greenway, which is the planned ‘multi-use active travel’ (walking, mobility scooters, bikes, etc) link between Royston and Cambridge. The route takes in Melbourn and Foxton village centres and includes the upgrade path from Melbourn to Meldreth Station. This is one of twelve Greenway schemes running on corridors from Cambridge and was approved in principle in June 2020. There’s still a great deal of detail to be worked out and funding for the Melbourn-Royston segment depends on specific grant bids.

Annual A10 Awareness Ride

In conjunction with the Greenway team’s quest to update on local concerns and ideas, the A10 Corridor Cycling Campaign will hold its annual Awareness Ride on Sunday 25th September, setting off from Trumpington Park and Ride at 10.00am, bound for Phillimore Garden Centre for refreshments. A walking and scooter contingent will set off from the Melbourn Hub at 10.00am. Please bring your own drinks and do get in touch if you would like to help as a ride marshal or contribute any cakes; many thanks in anticipation! We’ll be collecting local views on the day and should be joined by a Greenway team officer.
