General comment
Green Belt, City Conservation Areas and all main Historic Approach roads like Madingley Road, Barton road must be protected with principles of enhance and protect in transport strategy. Not destroy roads with bus lanes, lights, gantries and new roundabouts where the car or bus dominates.
The reasons for congestion are historical geography. There is simply not enough public bridges with capacity for cyclists, pedestrians let alone buses or cars, to cross the river Cam, in a medieval City with College privatised land.
There is only one viable solution. Tunnels under City with Cambridge Connect scheme phased in.
