Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57320

Received: 10/12/2021

Respondent: Huntingdonshire District Council

Representation Summary:

Huntingdonshire District Council agree that Greater Cambridge should look towards Cambridge to create new neighbourhoods on larger brownfield sites such as North East Cambridge. As the economic hub of the authorities, the impact of commuting within the area and in the surrounding districts is substantial. This strategy will enable the Councils to work towards their vision to create a “big decrease in climate impacts” and minimising carbon emissions and reliance on the private car. This will also have a positive impact on the surrounding districts.
