The Guided Busway is part of a public transport network that connects Cambridge to other parts of the county by bus. Alongside the guided bus tracks is a wide path that is ideal for walking, running, cycling and exploring.
This activity is good for wellbeing because
- the flat, wide and smooth path by the Guided Busway is ideal for exercising – including activities such as inline and roller skating;
- you can use the Guided Busway as a way to explore villages and the countryside – including RSPB Fen Drayton Lakes;
- getting outside and in the fresh air is energising.
