Travel disruption in Fendon Road, Cambridge - 27 Sep 2019 (P1040369)

Friday 27 September 2019 – Stagecoach bus services 1 and 2 traversing the roundabout at Queen Edith’s Way and Fendon Road in Cambridge are facing diversion (Sept 2019 to April 2020) as a result of modifications as part of the creation of the UK’s first ‘Dutch style’ roundabout.

This bus stop in Fendon Road is normally used by Cherry Hinton bound service 1 buses and city centre/Chesterton etc bound service 2 buses. Neither are using this section of road during the construction works. (Service 1 still operates past here heading towards Addenbrooke’s Hospital but uses a different route when operating towards Cherry Hinton),

Service 2 isn’t running through to Addenbrooke’s but is terminating at Wulfstan Way (Queen Edith Chapel). The timetable advises passengers to change to a service 1 bus at Cherry Hinton Road/Derwent Close to complete such a journey. Service 1 also operates every ten minutes.

Service 114 operated by A2B Bus and Coach (Mondays to Fridays) and Big Green Bus Company (Saturdays) remain unchanged and are operating normally through to/from Addenbrookes in both directions although there are only four trips each way and no Sunday service. Alternative temporary bus stops are sited a short distance behind the camera.
