About East West Rail and our 2026 consultation
East West Rail will connect communities between Oxford, Milton Keynes, Bedford and Cambridge, supporting sustainable economic growth in the area. The new railway would make it easier to reach jobs, education, public services and days out with family and friends. You can read more about the proposed benefits of East West Rail here.
