There will be a signed diversion route in place. Please allow extra time for your journeys.
Access will be maintained for residents who live and work inside the closure. If you live inside the closure, please inform traffic management of where you are intending to get to and they will allow you through. Based on where we are working each day, we may ask you to follow the diversion route and access your property from the other end of the closure.
Please find attached the roadworks bulletin, detailing works and events that are due to start between 16th – 28th February 2026.
Just a reminder that this only includes works that are due to start between 16th – 28th February 2026 and longer term works that are still in progress will have been included on previous reports. Alternatively please refer to https://one.network/ which will include details on emergency roadworks.

The Traffic Management Centre (TMC) monitors the county’s road network and reports any variations to the traffic flow, we refer to these as ‘incidents’. We use the term ‘incident’ to describe something that has happened on the County’s road network which has an impact (of varying degrees) on usual traffic flows. This could include, for example, a Road Traffic Collision, a burst water main or temporary traffic lights for road works.
We are using a new web-based system to log and display these incidents in both map and report formats.
We have attached a quick user guide to show you how to view the report and map but if you have any questions or feedback on the system, please don’t hesitate to send us an email. The system is still a work in progress and we have been using it live since August 2022, so anything pre-August has been ported over from our old log which is why there might not be as much detail in the information.
The TMC responded to 124 incidents on the road network throughout Cambridgeshire in January covering 21 weekdays. This figure is lower to that of what we reported in January 2025 and higher than the previous month.
Please see the table below which illustrates the number of incidents over the last 6 months, compared to the same period last year;

Following on from the latest update of the City Science system where we record our incidents, please be aware that when first opening the application it will now default to only showing you the last 28 days of incidents. We found performance of the controller page was struggling when showing the full history. If you want to revert to the old view, you can use the Timespan dropdown at the top of the sidebar and clear the “From” date (the actual clearing procedure is browser dependent, but it should be along the lines of clicking the date input, clicking “Clear” and then “Apply”).
We are aware there is conflicting information about the upcoming road closure on Earith Road. We are currently awaiting information from County Council’s Highways team to confirm when the closure will take place and will provide an update here when we receive it.

Having trouble viewing this newsletter? Open it in a web page. Issue two. Welcome This is the second edition of our recently introduced Guided Busway newsletter, keeping you up to date during safety improvement works. Whilst work is taking place, we’d like to remind people they must not trespass on the Busway, and they must keep to the maintenance track or formal crossing points for their own safety. As a reminder, we encourage members of the public to raise any safety concerns and report near misses directly to us.
An update on the safety improvements was discussed by the Highways and Transport Committee meeting on Tuesday, 2 December. The committee papers can be found on our website and the meeting will be live streamed on our YouTube channel. We are committed to reviewing safe crossing points with communities and local councillors. The committee discussed proposals for four areas to either introduce new crossing points or install other measures to help people cross the Busway safely. Locations being considered include either the Community Orchard or Manor Park, Histon as well as Rampton crossing, Over and Oxholme bridleway crossing. In addition, new crossing points are being looked at south of Histon and Impington and at other locations where there is local support.
Councillors also heard about the measures already in place such as the temporarily reduced speed limit along the whole Busway, a motorcyclist ban on the path, and a 15mph speed limit on the maintenance track. There has been extra warning and guidance signs added, yellow lines at bus stop platforms, and solar powered lighting at the Busway crossing points.
Public meeting held Tuesday 25 November On the evening of Tuesday, 25 November a further drop-in event was held at Histon Baptist Church. Residents had an opportunity to hear about the planned installation of separation fencing, discuss potential options for a new crossing in the area, and to share their views. We were pleased over 50 people were able to attend and share local feedback with us on the plans. This was the third public meeting we’ve held about the safety improvements we’re undertaking along the Busway. 1 December works between Orchard Park and Impington
Last issue we shared with you that works will start at Pagram Way (Orchard Park) up to Cambridge Road, Impington from today (Monday 1 December). The work involves digging foundations and installing posts, panels and emergency access gates. Works are expected to take 12 weeks, and we will be keeping you updated on the progress through these newsletters and on our webpage.
During these works, the Busway will be closed and a diversion route for buses will be in place. Route A buses will be diverted at Histon and Impington along Cambridge Road, Impington and on to Histon Road into Cambridge city centre. Route B buses will also divert along Cambridge Road and then rejoin the Busway at Orchard Park. The maintenance track, the path which runs alongside the busway, will remain open during the work for pedestrians and cyclists. The path will be narrower than usual, so please be mindful as you pass through this area. We have been engaging with the bus operators throughout and we appreciate the service times will vary particularly when the A14 junction is busy. People can access real time information on the bus companies’ app and updated information on diversions is available on our website.
Space for animals: We’ve been working closely with an ecologist as we prepare for, and carry out, works on the Busway. We’re also working with the RSPB on our plans for fencing, particularly in areas close to their reserves. Before starting each stage of our work, we will be checking for newts, toads and other reptile and amphibian species in the area. We plan to clear out the toad tunnels along the Busway whilst it’s closed for fencing works. This work must be done at a certain time of year to avoid disturbing the animals during hibernation season and will be completed by hand under the supervision of an ecologist.
We are creating gaps in the bottom of the fencing between the maintenance track and the Busway around every 9m to create paths for small animals like badgers, foxes and hedgehogs. We are also keeping in mind the needs of larger mammals like deer which may need to jump over the fence or find a safe exit route with the design and placement of the separation fencing.
Flooding – keep off the track We know it’s frustrating when sections of the path flood, as the area between St Ives Park & Ride and Holywell often does during the winter months. There is feasibility work underway to look at addressing the flooding, including a pontooned walkway, however, further design work is needed. Councillors will be updated on the three locations that regularly flood and the work to address the flooding is likely to take place in 2026. This issue was included in the Busway works update to the Highways and Transport Committee on Tuesday, 2 December When the maintenance track floods, we shut the path gates and put signs in place to advise that the path is closed. For your own safety, we urge people not to try to walk along the Busway track when it’s flooded. Alternative routes are available, please check and plan your journey before setting out. Flood gates are located at Second Drove, just after leaving St Ives Park & Ride, Holywell (Fen Drayton), and Mo Fen (Swavesey).
