Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
Representation ID: 59033
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: Grosvenor Britain & Ireland
Agent: JDA Planning Consultancy
Land to the west of Duxford Road, Whittlesford (HELAA site 59397)
Grosvenor's new proposal at Whittlesford would provide 300 Net Zero homes early in the plan period. The representation and appendices describe and illustrate a sustainable addition to the Village. Appendix 1 shows how the site can be integrated with the village, and provide a new woodland edge to the settlement. A network of greenspaces would be created which would provide an alternative sustainable cycle/ footpath route connecting the two parts of the village. The creation of a woodland edge would form a long-term defensible boundary of the GB. Appendix3 concludes that the proposals would secure a Net Gain in Biodiversity.
