Cambridge City Council

Open data: Transparency in local government

We are committed to being open and transparent about how we work, our decision-making processes and the services we provide.

In addition to the information we are required to make available under the local government transparency code, we also use feedback and information frequently requested under Freedom of Information to identify datasets for publication.

The data on this page are published under the Open Government Licence and is available for you to re-use as you like, including for commercial and research activities. Where possible we have made data available in both a 'human-readable' format (such as PDF) and an open, 'machine-readable' format that is not dependent on any specific software (such as CSV or XML).
