We have submitted a planning application for our brand new bus station for Bedford, and these are the first images illustrating how the planned development will look.

Youngsters Do Local Schools Proud Again at 2013 Schools Grand Prix
Last Sunday saw the 2013 Bedford Schools Grand Prix at the Bedford Autodrome in Thurleigh. This is a fantastic event which has taken place in recent years with the support of Jonathan Palmer, Chief Executive of Motorsport Vision (and of course renowned former racing driver). It invites local schools to enter teams in to design and construct a small electric car, before competing in a two hour endurance race. 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.

It all kicks off at 4.40am, with the first pre-booked tour. I shall be there, and can't wait to welcome the first visitors.
