Rail users are campaigning for a track connecting Bedford and Cambridge. On Saturday, June 29 members of Railfuture and Campaign for Better Transport will walk from Bedford to Sandy to highlight the campaign. The route from Oxford to Bedford is due to open in 2017 and this would extend the route still further.
