East West Rail in Little Shelford survey 2026

1.East West Rail is proposing to permanently close the railway crossing in Hauxton Road, Little Shelford because an additional five trains an hour will be travelling through the village crossing.

Closing the crossing is a good idea.

The crossing should not be closed.

I'm not sure.

2.East West Rail has previously proposed installing a pedestrian footbridge when the railway crossing is permanently closed the railway crossing in Hauxton Road, Little Shelford.

A new footbridge is a good idea.

A new footbridge is unnecessary.

I'm not sure.

3.A new road is proposed connecting Little Shelford and Hauxton. It would run from Hauxton Road (on the other side of the railway tracks) to Newton Road in Little Shelford. What do you think about the type of junction of the proposed road with Newton Road?

It should be a normal T junction with traffic on the new road giving way to traffic on Newton Road.

There should be a mini roundabout at the junction.

There should be traffic lights at the junction.

I am unsure.

4.The closure of the Hauxton Road railway crossing is likely to mean more cars using Newton Road in Little Shelford. This could mean that the priorities for the junction of Newton Road and Hauxton Road should change, with traffic from Newton Road being able to turn right at the junction with Hauxton Road without giving way as they do at present.

The priorities for the Newton Road/ Hauxton Road junction should change.

The priorities for the Newton Road/ Hauxton Road junction should stay the same.

I am unsure.
