@jerryalderson Or anywhere in Europe really 😃 except here, where we are lagging…
“Councillors have agreed to move forward with plans to build a new busway to the south of Cambridge, despite concerns it will “wreck the countryside”. Cambs County Council backs multi-million-pound busway despite concerns it will ‘wreck the countryside’ cambridge-news.co.uk/news/cambridge…
Congrats to Elizabeth Line... Cambridge should aspire to create its own underground... Cambridge research could be the inspiration: gravity, Black Holes, atomic structure, electromagnetism, blood circulation... a long list bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
A decision on CSET, @GreaterCambs’ southeast Cambridge busway, will be made by @CambsCC on 22 October 2024. Papers for the meeting are now available... cambridgeshire.cmis.uk.com/ccc_live/Meeti…

Never mind all the other problems with the scheme, just this element alone should be enough to stop the project. There's no way this degree of conflict between transport modes in such a constrained space should be tolerated cambridgeindependent.co.uk/news/amp/162m-… @SmarterCam
The @SCLibDems @IanSollom @pippaheylings have history when it comes to C2C and the destruction of Coton Orchard.

The things that were said by the @LibDems & Labour councillors @CambsCC to justify a whipped vote to progress the C2C off road busway were extraordinarily, ridiculous in fact.
We strongly support reinstating railway to Haverhill, serving the Cambridge biosciences cluster: residents, businesses, & eg @CamBioCampus @grantapark would be major beneficiaries. Restoring long-closed railway link would ‘transform the area’ argues MP suffolknews.co.uk/haverhill/news…
City of Le Mans is similar in size to Cambridge, ~145K, has two light rail lines ~19 km in length carrying ~18m pax per yr. First line opened in 2007. Le Mans trams to be lengthened to boost capacity railwaygazette.com/light-rail-and…
And it’s transport! Invest in a modern, sustainable light rail system to address growth pressures. Drop the @GreaterCambs busways, anachronistic schemes conceived over a decade ago. “Everything about Cambridge is booming — except housing supply”ft.com/content/4a486e… via @FT
As 2024 dawns, you wonder what fresh opportunities will spring, & the @GreaterCambs CSETS & C2C busways start to feel decidedly anachronistic in the context of this great city, with all of its potential, we look ahead & feel like they belong where they began in the last century…
There is an alternative on road route. Roughly 10% of the price but 90% of the benefits for public transport, but also additional benefits for the private motorist. Why do Lib Dems and Labour at CCC refuse to even consider this. Deliver it now!

No surprise here, but the @GreaterCambs Executive Board meeting, the chair has concluded that #MakingConnections, including the Sustainable Travel Zone congestion charge, will not progress.
Listen up Cambridge. If we are not vocal in our opposition to @GreaterCambs plan to tarmac over Coton’s 100 yr old orchard for a busway which could go on the road the backdrop to the historic city will go.

Of course, especially in Cambridge, there is now a North, & soon to be a South station and Greenways, many people can work from home, AND with East-West Rail, the roads will have plenty space for delay free buses. Who needs to dig up Green Belt for Busways and huge P&R sites!

In CambsCC meeting asking Cllr Meschini for evidence CPPF on road scheme has been appraised. In reply given a ref. to the CPPF scheme on the @GreaterCambs site. This is NOT evidence that an appraisal has been done.
