I have written here on numerous occasions about the importance for the borough of the final phase of the Bedford Western Bypass. It will bring numerous benefits, making Bedford even better connected, encouraging new economic growth and employment and quite simply making it easier for all road users to get around!

Not only that, but the schools are tasked with running a comprehensive racing team operation involving as many pupils and departments as possible, covering a wide range of aspects of the schools curriculum.
