Respondent: Stapleford Parish Council
The Stapleford site is being promoted on ‘good transport links’ with one train per hour from the Great Shelford Station! The village is within a ten minute cycle distance from all the local Campus sites. The connectivity problems arise from the A1307 (which connects these sites) and the lack of rail route from Haverhill where many employees live due to the affordable housing there. Reopening the Haverhill train line would remove much of the traffic from the A1307 and alleviate the traffic problems we have through the village
