Commit to transforming the pedestrian experience along the whole of Mill Road

This should include:

•  wider, resurfaced pavements
• more and improved crossings
•  pedestrian priority at side roads
•  better public space.
  
  

In July 2022, the county council committed to develop a public realm improvement scheme for Mill Road. 

In March 2025, the Greater Cambridge Partnership (GCP) redirected the Fulbourn Greenway along Mill Road. It also committed to work with other local authorities to develop a vision for the whole of the street. The GCP is unable to deliver a solution for the whole of Mill Road alone, so the city and county councils must pledge their support and dedicate skills and resources to this project.

We are calling on Cambridgeshire County Council to step up and: 

• ensure that officers and councillors are committed to work on the Mill Road vision
• identify funding for the implementation of improvements beyond the scope of the GCP’s Greenway project.

Thousands of people walk and wheel along this street every day. They deserve an improved pedestrian experience.

Please commit to make Mill Road better today.
