Testing out the Luton-Dunstable guided busway

Trial runs took place this morning on the partly completed Luton-Dunstable guided busway.

It is hoped the eight mile route will reduce journey times between Luton, Dunstable and Houghton Regis by up to 50 per cent.

The £90 million busway was due to open in April, but with construction delayed by bad weather it has now been pushed back to late summer.
