Public Consultation – THE MOOR PLAY PARK REFURBISHMENT PROJECT

As you may already know, the Moor Play Park Refurbishment project is well under way, and the project is now at arguably the most important stage; The Public Consultation. We want to hear your thoughts and comments on the three short listed designs.

The consultation period will start on Friday 11th February and run until Tuesday 1st March.

All three designs will be on display at the Melbourn Community Hub from Monday 14th – Saturday 19th February, during opening hours, for you to view. You will be able to vote for your preferred design, leave comments about your favourite items of equipment, and suggest any minor adjustments to improve the design.

You can also participate online by viewing the designs below and  completing the Public consultation Survey (please click on the link to access the survey.) You will have from Friday 11th February – Tuesday 1st March to complete the online survey.

Updates from the Meldreth Shepreth and Foxton Rail User Group

Face Coverings and
More Special Stop Orders for Meldreth

Face Coverings
Face coverings are no longer legally required on public transport, but Thameslink and Great Northern have asked us to make rail users aware that they are asking customers to be considerate and wear a face covering if they can whilst travelling.

If you are travelling onwards in London, face coverings must be worn for the full duration of journeys on the TfL network, including inside stations and bus stations, unless you are exempt.

More Special Stop Orders
From 27th January GTR will be adding in two more morning peak stops at Meldreth, heading to Cambridge – these are ‘Special Stop Orders’, arranged on an emergency basis during this period of reduced timetables brought about by workforce shortages, and specifically designed to accommodate children and young people heading to school and college in Cambridge.

  • 07:12 Kings Cross to Ely, call additionally at Meldreth at circa 07:48
  • 07:42 Kings Cross to Kings Lynn, call additionally at Meldreth at circa 08:18

We look forward to the restoration of the regular timetable as soon as the workforce builds back and allows.
