A video review of the bus services all over Central Bedfordshire. FYI, Central Bedfordshire is what was left after successive local government reorganisations removed the boroughs of Luton and Bedford from the County of Bedfordshire. Services range from weekly rural journeys to buses every few minutes on the Luton Dunstable guided busway. You will see some interesting workings, like the extraordinary northbound loopback at Clophill, and the reverse turn at Sandy, Engayne Avenue. Although all buses are low floor (except the community buses), Arriva, Grant Palmer and Centrebus all manage to field 1997 vintage Dennis Darts, the oldest being Arriva's P195LKJ. Arriva also have the newest vehicles in the video - 63-reg Volvo B7RLEs (although Centrebus had some 14-plate Enviro 200s in the area, I wasn't lucky enough to see one).
We asked one of our foster families to make a film convincing prospective foster carers why they should give a child or young person a second chance in life. Here's what they came up with...

On Tuesday, April 26, 2016, Central Bedfordshire was one of three locations in the UK (including London and Stratford-upon-Avon) that were visited by a special trade delegation from Shangrao City of Jiangxi Province in China, with the aims of exploring potential business opportunities, developing co-operation, sharing best practice and to learn about British industry and culture. There was also a particular interest in learning more about good examples of town centre regeneration, such as in Dunstable, and rural tourism construction.
Arranged by Central Bedfordshire Council's Regeneration and Business directorate and hosted Executive Member for Regeneration, Cllr Nigel Young, this is an example of how Central Bedfordshire is encouraging businesses into the area and enabling large-scale investment and development locally, nationally and internationally.

Bedfordshire
Bedfordshire (/ˈbɛdfədʃə/ or /ˈbɛdfədʃɪə/; abbreviated Beds.) is a county in the East of England. It is a ceremonial county and a historic county, covered by three unitary authorities: Bedford, Central Bedfordshire, and Luton.
Bedfordshire is bordered by Cambridgeshire to the east/northeast, Northamptonshire to the north, Buckinghamshire to the west and Hertfordshire to the east/southeast. It is the fourteenth most densely populated county of England, with over half the population of the county living in the two largest built-up areas: Luton (236,000) and the county town, Bedford (102,000). The highest elevation point is 243 metres (797 ft) on Dunstable Downs in the Chilterns.
The traditional nickname for people from Bedfordshire is "Clangers", deriving from a local dish comprising a suet crust pastry filled with meat in one end and jam in the other.
History
The first recorded use of the name in 1011 was "Bedanfordscir," meaning the shire or county of Bedford, which itself means "Beda's ford" (river crossing).

Central Bedfordshire
Central Bedfordshire is a unitary authority area in the ceremonial county of Bedfordshire, England. It was created from the merger of Mid Bedfordshire and South Bedfordshire District Councils on 1 April 2009. With a budget of £500m the unitary council provides over a hundred services to a quarter of a million people, and is responsible for schools, social services, rubbish collection, roads, planning, leisure centres, libraries, care homes and more.
Administrative history
Since 1974 Bedfordshire had been governed as a shire county, mostly under the control of Bedfordshire County Council. In 1997 it was divided into three local government districts, Bedford Borough, Mid Bedfordshire, and South Bedfordshire. Luton Borough became a unitary authority in 1997.
In 2006 the Department for Communities and Local Government considered reorganising Bedfordshire's administrative structure as part of the 2009 structural changes to local government in England. The four proposals considered were:
