There are presently maintenance works being carried out on the Swavesey platform. The Busway is closed between Swavesey and Station Road Longstanton. Whilst these works are being undertaken and the track is closed, we will also be taking the opportunity to perform several beam lifts in this section to ensure the smooth running of the Busway.

This will mean that the maintenance track will be closed to all users between 27 and 31 January.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Amended Busway B timetable from Sunday 3rd November 2024

posted 21 October 2024 on behalf of Stagecoach

We are pleased to amend our Busway timetable to add two extra journeys in the morning and afternoon peak, between St Ives Park & Ride and Drummer Street. This will offer more seats when they are needed.

As a response to severe congestion on Hills Road, which means it is now taking up to 29 mins to travel to Addenbrookes, we have no choice but to reduce the number of B services going to the colleges from nine journeys to five. This ensures that college students get the service they need but other B customers get a more punctual service.

Please check the new timetable here for exact journey details.

For more info see the update on the Stagecoach website.
