Cambourne Town Council is in support of development, but would make the following comment in relation to the Cambourne allocation:
- Object to any allocation of new homes for Cambourne until a final decision has been made on East West Rail and funding committed to the project. The prospect of a railway station is the only reason that Cambourne is considered a sustainable location for growth and until this is secured, no allocation should be progressed.
- Given the inherent uncertainty of delivery largescale infrastructure, any allocation of new homes in Cambourne should specifically state that planning permission will not be granted until work commences on a Cambourne Station and no new homes will be allowed to be occupied until the station and East West Rail services are operational.
