Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57289

Received: 10/12/2021

Respondent: Universities Superannuation Scheme (Commercial)

Agent: Deloitte

Representation Summary:

USS is supportive of the references to improving sustainable transport and connectivity across the area. The Clifton Road Industrial Estate is in a highly sustainable location, that is well connected to public transport and has good active travel links. The site allocation has a proposal to connect the site to Cambridge National Rail Station. Therefore, redeveloping the site will further increase its sustainability.

The Clifton Road Industrial Estate and Coldham’s Road Industrial Estate could also be appropriate locations for last mile logistic hubs, which would help improve sustainability of deliveries across Cambridge.
