Study Objectives
“Recommend multi-modal transport plans which address the most urgent problems in the corridor between Cambridge and Huntingdon, looking in
particular at modal shift from the car. The recommended plans will address identifiable
transport problems within the corridor and will take account of wider, regional economic development
and environmental opportunities”
