Huntingdon railway station is less than 6km from Alconbury Weald and a 10 minutes bus journey on the Busway B service, which stops just outside the station.
Alternatively, it would take you approximately 25 minutes to cycle to Huntingdon train station and secure, sheltered cycle parking is provided free of charge at the station.
Car parking is available at Huntingdon station for £7.10 per day (correct as of December 2022) – which of course could be less if you have a car share partner.
We are working with partners to bring forward a rail station at Alconbury Weald, which is planned as part of a £22billion investment in East Coast Mainline, Crossrail and Thameslink.
