Luton airport bosses are calling for better rail links to the terminal after it had its busiest ever May.

1.5 million passengers travelled through last month, an increase of 3.6%

There is already a multi-million pound redevelopment taking place, but in the meantime the airport is calling on bidders for the franchise to include four fast trains per hour into central London.

London Luton Airport carried 15.8 million passengers in 2017, an increase of 8.6% since 2016.

9,400 people are employed in connection with the airport.

A pedestrian is believed to have been hit by a guided bus in Cambridge during this morning's rush hour.

Emergency services were called to reports of a collision on the guided busway near Purbeck Road, close to Cambridge University Press. The ambulance service said it was first called at 8.17am with police alerted at 8.34am.

The East of England Ambulance Service said a man, believed to be in his 30s, was treated at the scene with leg and shoulder injuries and was taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital.

A police spokesman said he had "suspected serious but not life-threatening injuries".

The guided busway connects areas around Addenbrooke's Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus to the city centre, via Cambridge station.
