Work starts on phase 7 - the section between Pagram Way, Orchard Park to Cambridge North - from Sunday 19 April. The Busway from the Orchard Park turning to Milton Road will close to buses from Sunday, however, the maintenance track will remain open to pedestrians and cyclists throughout.
The Busway between Orchard Park and the Histon and Impington city-bound stop will reopen to buses following the completion of works in this section this week.
The A route and the Orchard Park East and West bus stops, which were reversed during the works closure between Orchard Park and Histon, will return to normal.
Students for Cambridge Regional College should use Orchard Park East. Temporary stops will be in place on Milton Road for Cambridge Science Park, located outside the car dealership (what3words ///chair.palace.intelligible) and opposite the Golden Hind (what3words (///crisis.chips.outfit). During this closure, B Buses will be diverted via Kings Hedges Road and Milton Road inbound and vice versa outbound and will continue to serve Cambridge North in both directions.
The works compound currently at the corner of Orchard Park, which been used during phase 6, will be relocated south of the Busway junction during the works between Cambridge Regional College to Milton Road.
Works include the construction of safety fencing between the Busway and the foot and cycle path as well as perimeter fencing between Garry Drive and the Busway.
Meanwhile to the south, safety works continue to schedule on the Addenbrooke’s spur of the Busway. We also currently have a team working replace and repair lights along the Busway.
