It is unclear to what extent any technical work has been undertaken to demonstrate that intensified rates of development at Northstowe and Waterbeach New Town each for an additional 750 homes in the plan period is achievable.
Contingency sites should therefore be included at this early stage in the plan process to ensure the plan is effective (deliverable over the plan period) as required by the NPPF (2021).
