I strongly recommend a slip road off the A14 in to any new development.

Here are my comments regarding the Cambridge Northern Fringe development, after visiting the Milton Community Centre exhibition on the 19th January. A major concern to Milton residents would be the extra traffic generated through the village and also at the roundabout. Particularly if, in the future, the Cambridge Rowing lake and Waterbeach housing developments proceed. Extra roads to alleviate traffic congestion into and around Milton are essential, in my view.

See attached a possible idea/solution that could be constructed to help the above developments.

Basically a slip road off the A14 directly into the new North Fringe development running parallel to the railway line. Traffic from Huntingdon would come off at Horningsea and re-join the A14 to then use the slip road into the Station area. Newmarket traffic would just come off the A14.

If the Cambridge Rowing lakes go ahead then maybe a slip road into that as well. An alternative would be to construct a new roundabout to feed both the Northern Fringe and also the Rowing lakes.
