Bird house, convenient for Guided Busway

How things change. 4 years ago this square was very difficult to access, being the 99th point claimed in this hectad (TL4166 : Beck Brook flowing towards Rampton Drift). Now there is an open Guided Busway right across the middle of it, accompanied by a cycleway (at the bottom of the embankment here).

Funding for the 'Guided Busway' was first applied for in July 2002. Cambridgeshire was awarded £92.5 million.
