Agent: Grosvenor Britain & Ireland
TMLC supports the provision of open space and recreation provision within new development and that this is appropriate to the scale and location of the development. Trumpington South is able to provide double the open space requirements, but also act to enhance access to and connection with existing open space provision in the Trumpington Meadows Country Park. As at Trumpington Meadows, extensive multi-functional open space can be delivered that will provide benefits well in excess of the policy requirements. The scale of the GI proposed can further augment the strong landscape setting to the City established as part of the Trumpington Meadows project. It can provide major additional recreational opportunities for people of all ages and abilities and, as with the existing county park, further help to integrate new and existing communities at Trumpington.
