New Whippet service 18a from 2nd September

Thanks to funding from the Combined Authority, Whippet will be launching service 18a on Monday 2nd September. As the numbering might suggest, this is a variant of Whippet’s existing service 18 (Cambridge-Comberton-Cambourne-St Neots).

The 18a will add five journeys between Cambridge and Cambourne, and vice versa, although the first of the Cambridge-bound trips will start from St Neots, and operate only when schools are open.

Some journeys are timed to serve Comberton Village College at key times.

So what distinguishes service 18a from the existing service 18? The 18a doesn’t serve Grantchester and Kingston – for those villages you need to use the 18.

Like the 18, the 18a doesn’t run on Sundays.
