Draft North East Cambridge Area Action Plan

Representation ID: 54031

Received: 04/10/2020

Respondent: Mrs Tamsin Beevor

Representation Summary:

North east Cambridge is seriously under provided with open space. The proposed development exacerbates this situation. The high housing density does not allow for private gardens. The suggested three primary schools indicates a large expected population of children. There is very little space for children to play. Milton park is agreed to be at capacity. While it may be extended the larger park will be mostly water and too far for children to reach on foot. The development would do well to revive the traditional village green.
