In the fast-growing area that is South Cambridgeshire, participating in conversations that shape the expansion of rail services all around us is a must. At the same time, a strong focus on improvements for Meldreth, Shepreth and Foxton Station infrastructure underpins our Local Rail Improvement Plan and offers a clear assessment of station accessibility requirements.

  • Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority Local Transport Plan Consultation Cambridgeshirepeterborough-Ca.Gov.Uk/About-Us/Programmes/Transport/Ltp
    Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority Local Transport Plan Consultation cambridgeshirepeterborough-ca.gov.uk/about-us/programmes/transport/ltp Railfuture East Anglia welcomes the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority Local Transport Plan Consultation which contains a significant number of rail schemes. We have the following comments on the policy objectives that affect rail, the rail schemes identified in the LTP, and schemes which are currently missing and should be added to the LTP, and record the organisations supporting these missing schemes. 1. Rail Policy Objectives Policy Objective 1 – Support Housing and Development Railfuture welcomes this policy objective to strengthen the links between new development and transport. This is an issue that has often been given little importance in the past especially with respect to improved public transport provision. There are many new developments of several hundred houses approved but without regular public transport. We would urge the CA to develop specific policies relating to the level of public transport required to serve new development to meet the requirements of the other LTP objectives. Transport projects such as the Wisbech Line reopening, new stations at Soham, Alconbury, Hampton and Cambridge South can help support sustainable new development. Although most journeys made are local, people do make longer journeys. Railfuture would want to see all significant future development either centred around a railway station, or linked by a dedicated feeder public transport service timed to connect with trains, and high quality cycle routes. Within the requirement to seek developer contributions towards improved transport infrastructure (policy 1.1.3), Railfuture would like to see improved cycle spaces at stations, with the storage being frequently reviewed and upgraded to keep significantly ahead of demand.

The railways in East Anglia benefit from having not just active rail user groups, but a growing number of Community Rail Partnerships (CRPs). Members who attended our Branch AGM in February 2019 would have heard about some of the work that has been happening on the East Suffolk Line and the North Norfolk Line. To give an example, probably in June 2019, the former Parcels Office at Lowestoft station will be re-opened as a community arts space. On the other side of the region, the Meldreth, Shepreth and Foxton CRP has achieved many good things, as you can read about on page 8. Although CRPs are normally associated with rural routes, perhaps all lines should have them. At my local station, Huntingdon, which does not have a rail user group, the train operator recently put up signs asking for volunteers to help create a garden at the station.

Originally planned for a two-platform station, the present thinking is that a four- platform station is needed, with four tracks from a grade- separated Shepreth Branch Junction (where the Liverpool Street and King’s Cross lines diverge) to Cambridge station itself. Lisa told the meeting that a two-platform station would not be able to cope with the expanded train service, especially if East West Rail trains were included. During the Q&A Lisa acknowledged that many important lessons had been learned from Cambridge North station to make sure that passengers were the priority in its design.

  • Great Northern Try a Train Day Hailed a Success After Boosting Confidence of Autism Group
    Red2Green learners enjoyed a train trip to Shepreth Wildlife Park as part of Great Northern's Try a Train experience Jun 26, 2019 16:34 BST Great Northern Try a Train day hailed a success after boosting confidence of autism group Six people with autism now feel more confident about travelling by train after having taken part in Great Northern’s Try a Train experience. Learners from the Red2Green charity, which helps people with learning disabilities and autism gain life skills, enjoyed a Try a Train day with Great Northern on Monday (24 June). To start with, the Cambridge-based group were given a tour of Cambridge railway station by Great Northern staff. They were shown how to buy tickets, use the ticket gates and look out for information boards and signs. After learning about the station, they set off on a train to Shepreth for a visit to Shepreth Wildlife Park, where the highlights included meerkats, bats and tigers. Learners were accompanied by Great Northern’s Stephen Shead-Nichols, who works in Letchworth ticket office, Community Rail Partnership Project Officer Sarah Grove, Red2Green tutor Sally Hulme, a Red2Green teaching assistant and a volunteer. Sally said: “It was a great day. You could see a big difference in the learners’ confidence by the end of it. I was very impressed with the Try a Train scheme. A lot of our learners don’t drive and aren’t likely to drive, so they’re very reliant on public transport. The idea is that they’re all capable of travelling independently, but it was just about getting them confident to do that.” Sally praised rail staff for putting her learners at ease and making the day “great fun.” She added: “One of the comments made before the trip was the fact you have to deal with officials sometimes.
