Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 58091

Received: 12/12/2021

Respondent: Dr Rob Wallach

Representation Summary:

It is essential to consider transportation issues in Cambridge. My wife is now very disabled and is confined to a very large wheelchair which is not easy to wheel for large distances (it is too heavy and also many of the pavements are in a poor state of repair). The only way that she can leave the house to go anywhere is in a purpose-adapted vehicle. Hence, the needs of her and other similarly disabled individuals must be catered for with ready access (and parking) in the Cambridge City centre.
