Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 59787

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Mr Barrie Hunt

Representation Summary:

I welcome the statement that “We propose to only permit development if there is, or will be, sufficient infrastructure capacity to support and meet all the requirements arising from the new development, at the time when they are needed.”
As described in 3.2 above, this assessment should specifically include the impact of traffic from the Fulbourn Road East and Fulbourn Road West (GB3 and GB4) sites together with Cambridge East when it comes on stream. It should include a focus on traffic into and out of Queen Edith’s Way and Cherry Hinton Road, including at the Robin Hood junction.
