Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 56975

Received: 09/12/2021

Respondent: Trumpington Residents Association

Representation Summary:

The Trumpington Residents' Association supports the requirement for new developments to include green infrastructure and the emphasis on the River Cam corridor and the Gog Magog hills and chalkland fringe. We also stress the importance of maintaining and improving the Hobson’s Brook/Vicar’s Brook Green Corridor. There is a need for the Councils to increase the investment in assets such as Trumpington Meadows Country Park and Hobson's Park and protect them from development. We share the concern about water demand and the risk to the River Cam and other resources including Hobson's Brook from Nine Wells.
