There is a great need for a strategic cycle link from Gamlingay through Waresley to Great Gransden and from there to Cambourne. This could be part of a greater project to link Bedford to Cambridge by cycle. The Bedford to Sandy station section is in place, as is funding for Sandy to Potton and Potton to Gamlingay is under discussion. The Cambourne to Cambridge cycleway is also a priority.
As traffic increases along the B1040, cycling along it has become increasingly dangerous. In earlier years cycling between our local villages was routine, but now it is not an option for normal cyclists. The proposed link would be of huge benefit to local residents and would in the wider context supply leisure facilities for the much larger population between Cambridge and Bedford.
This scheme is strongly supported by Waresley-cum-Tetworth Parish Council.
