The Greater Cambridge City Deal is an agreement between the Government and councils and other organizations in the Cambridge region, which will provide funding (to the value of hundreds of millions of pounds) for transport infrastructure in the area. It is delivered by the Greater Cambridge Partnership, formerly called the City Deal Board. There is an official Greater Cambridge website.
You can read our view on congestion reduction, our response to the Greater Cambridge Partnership congestion proposals.
We are working with the Smarter Cambridge Transport campaign group to help ensure that the City Deal is implemented well. We are also responding to consultations on individual Greater Cambridge Partnership projects (see the links below for more information) – these are discussed online on Cyclescape, so do join up if you’d like to be involved.
