Public Transport - Route Planner and TimetablesIf you use public transport, then you may be interested in a very useful website that we were recently made aware of:www.travelineeastanglia.org.uk is the website of Traveline, a government-sponsored initiative to promote all public transport in the region including trains, buses, coaches and trams. The service covers all East Anglia, including Buckden. Buckden can be entered as a "town" on the journey planner. Local bus, train and coach services are included - so appropriate connections are worked out as necessary. It is also possible to contact Traveline on the generic Public Transport enquiry phone number of 0870 608 2608. Again this covers all public transport. The same number applies throughout the UK but routes to a local office in the first instance. (Thanks to Stuart Wilkinson for providing details of this website.)
