A key focus for CBRR is to inform residents across the County of the impending decisions about routes for the Expressway and the East West Railway from Bedford to Cambridge. We have done this by a continuing series of Presentations. The first were pre-view presentations to Parish Chairmen and SCDC Councillors. These have been followed by a series of continuing presentations to individual Parishes and groups of neighbouring parishes. Here is our Schedule and a map showing which Parishes have booked us. All remaining Parishes are warmly encouraged to book a presentation by emailing us at info@cambedailroad.org

No one can pretend any longer that East West Rail is just a  dream, it’s happening now. Budget awards £20 million for Bedford to Cambridge routes. Click here to read what Chancellor Hammond had to say in his Budget Speech.
