The Cygnet travel zone equates to the area currently covered by the Stagecoach Megarider and includes the whole of Bedford and Kempston, as well as the surrounding villages such as Bromham, Clapham, Cople, Wilstead and Wootton. The pass costs £6 for a day ticket, with the weekly ticket priced at £18 can be bought from the driver of the first bus on which you travel.

Cycling Campaign for North Bedfordshire

There are significant resources being dedicated to cycling across the Borough. The website http://www.cyclebedford.org.uk is the promotional website of Cycling Campaign for North Bedfordshire and is full of great information, from hints and tips to local maps such as the one opposite – which is already on its 9th edition!

The aim has been to show routes which as far as possible avoid busy and difficult roads. Bedford is blessed with many opportunities to do this and the routes shown connect the residential areas to all the main destinations in the town and to the countryside.

Dust off that saddle and make a difference to your life!
