Where we are
In early 2025, our board agreed to a new alignment for the section between the A1134 and the Carter Bridge to link the rest of the greenway and the Chisholm Trail via Mill Road. We have worked with Cambridgeshire County Council to resurface Apthorpe Street and Cow Lane, Fulbourn this will be completed in the new year.
Recently, we’ve been preparing a consultation on the second phase of the Fulbourn Greenway route between Yarrow Road and the A1134 (Brooks Road). We look forward to hearing from you when the consultation opens in early 2026.
How we got here
A first public consultation was held in Autumn 2018 and our decision-making Executive Board agreed funds for the greenway in February 2020.
With updated designs, we sough public feedback for four weeks in Summer 2023. Leaflets were delivered to 9,600 households and businesses and we held an online webinar and a drop-in event anyone could attend. Anyone could submit comments online, over the phone or via the post.
Our January 2024 Executive Board meeting agreed to progress the eastern section (phase 1) with the changes outlined in our You Said We Did Report.
Subject to agreements with Network Rail further engagement on phase two of the greenway will be carried out.
Route overview
Running from Fulbourn into Cambridge Railway Station via Hinton Road, Fulbourn Old Drift, paths parallel to the railway and The Tins path to the Carter Bridge.
