The Park & Ride network in Cambridge has been revamped, with new branding and vehicles.

There are currently five Park & Ride routes in the city – Madingley, Newmarket Road, Babraham Road, Milton and Trumpington, all of which will now terminate in the city centre. Previously, the Madingley and Newmarket Road sites were linked across the city, as were the Milton and Babraham Road sites.

To reflect this change, there will now be five individual route colours instead of the previous three. New Alexander Dennis Enviro400s adorning these liveries are still being rolled out. CBW understands that many of the new vehicles will not arrive until February, as they are providing rail-replacement services while track replacement takes place on the Merseyrail network.

The new colours are maroon for Madingley, green for Babraham Road, blue for Trumpington, purple for Milton and orange for Newmarket Road.
