3About Kempston
Kempston forms part of Bedford's urban sprawl in Bedfordshire, connected by the A5140 from Bedford centre and the A421 linking the M1 at Junction 13. Most traffic involves local Bedford-area journeys, though the A421 corridor attracts longer trips between Milton Keynes and Cambridge. The town sits in the Great Ouse valley with over 150 EV charging points nearby. Kempston Rovers FC, established in 1884, remains one of Bedfordshire's oldest football clubs.
