Whippet are withdrawing from services to the west of Huntingdon. This means that there will be a new timetable for what remains of services X2/X3 (Huntingdon to/from Cambridge via Papworth and Cambourne, with a few services covering Huntingdon to/from Fenstanton). The new timetable comes into effect on Monday 5th September, and a copy of that timetable can be downloaded here. The route has been subject to a significant number of cancellations in recent months, and passengers are advised to keep an eye on Whippet’s Twitter feed!

No, not via Hardwick.
A428 from Cambourne to A1303 (Madingley Mulch) slip road and roundabout, east along A1303 passing the American War Memorial Cemetery, right south on M11 at Jn 13, down M11 to Jn 11, north on A1309, east on A1301 spur, before Trumpington P&R, onto Addenbrooke’s Road and Dame Mary Archer Way, etc…

So will the X2 and X3 be using St Neots Road Hardwick to access Madingley Road/A1303?
What you describe as a small error is actually a massive mistake. The absence of a connection between the A428 and M11 is the cause of congestion and delays in the villages west of M11.

There is a minor error on the Whippet X2/X3 map. The section between Cambourne and the M11 should read A428/A1303. The X2 will join the M11 at Jn13.

Why is it that both Whippet and Stagecoach are blind to the difference between the A428 and the A1303? Look at the maps! The 905 CANNOT be on the A428 and stop in Caldecote. There is no physical road connection. The A428 does NOT connect to the M11 https://www.go-whippet.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/X2-X3-leaflet-99×210-220905-WEB.pdf
Can there be some accurate mapping and service route information please. It looks like Hardwick will have the 905 instead of the Citi 4 but that is not clear. Such poor communication.
