Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57882

Received: 12/12/2021

Respondent: North Newnham Residents Association

Representation Summary:

The further development of Cambourne to provide much needed housing is a logical development. To make this truly successful there needs to be attractive public transport between Cambourne and Cambridge. In relation to the Cambourne to Cambridge busway proposals, the NNRA recognises and supports the need for a separate dedicated route for this infrastructure. Only by segregating public transport from general traffic can the reliability and service frequency necessary to make public transport an attractive option be achieved.
