Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
Representation ID: 59207

The level of growth suggested is far too high! Natural resources (especially water), and infrastructure (roads, sewers,…) cannot support 40000+ new homes.
I realise we might be constrained by government targets but economic regeneration in the north and west must be a better approach than building more in the eastern region. Greater Cambridge should demand that central government plans to do some actual levelling up via a planning strategy.
Further, I object to the way that Cambridge Ahead were allowed to influence the first consultation with their crazed vision of growth. That was rather undemocratic!
