Support is given to the identification of the need to provide good quality affordable housing in accessible locations and the promotion of sustainable and active travel. It is considered however, as currently drafted, the strategy of the Plan has a focus on Cambridge, the edge of Cambridge and new settlements and does little to provide for future development within the rural areas
Support is given to the identification of the need to provide good quality affordable housing in accessible locations and the promotion of sustainable and active travel. It is considered however, as currently drafted, the strategy of the Plan has a focus on Cambridge, the edge of Cambridge and new settlements and does little to provide for future development within the rural areas. If the Plan is going to meet the wellbeing and social inclusion aspirations identified, then there needs to be a better balance to ensure that affordable housing and sustainable travel is provided across the urban and rural areas of Greater Cambridge.
