After decades of talk, the Chisholm Trail is finally beginning to take shape and work is actually starting on the northern part of the Trail.

A direct, mostly off-road cycle-way linking the northern business parks and Cambridge North railway station to the central railway station and the biomedical campus at Addenbrookes will be a very valuable addition to the cycling infrastructure of the city - as Jim Chisholm spotted decades ago.

Romsey, Coleridge and Petersfield residents will be among those best placed to use it - so local Liberal Democrats, including former County Councillor Kilian Burke, have been among those campaigning for it for years.
