*** Health Warning: These drawings date from early 2022 and may not represent the final proposal. ***
Having established the principle that EWRCo. should release these maps, a follow on Freedom of Information request and some encouragement from the Information Commissioner’s office has produced these additional maps. The earlier release is available here. So we now have a complete set of the “core section” or new track from Bedford to Cambridge as the proposal stood in early 2022.
***It is clear that the section from Wyboston to the East Coast Mainline had changed by May 2023 *** (map 0412) to the “Tempsford Variant 1A” which runs south of the Black Cat roundabout. A map of this has also been released by EWRCo. and is included. Unfortunately, is does not include details of land required for construction and biodiversity net gain shown in the other maps and dates from November 2021.
Here are the maps.
The final map from Croxton to Caxton Gibbet connects to a map in the previous release here.
One reply on “Clapham to Caxton Gibbet Maps”
Thank you for securing this and publishing it. I’m puzzled by the route variants shown around Tempsford – maybe someone cleverer than me can explain how all this is supposed to fit together.
All in all, a nightmare is heading in our direction unless and until some grownup in government has the guts to say it’s a waste of taxpayers’ money.
