Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
Representation ID: 59868

Respondent: East West Rail
Agent: Adams Hendry Consulting Ltd
EWR supports the proposed allocation of additional housing at Cambourne, due to the connectivity that
EWR will provide. Evolving and expanding Cambourne into a vibrant town alongside the development of
the new East West Rail station is supported. The GCLP-FP recognises that the East West Rail route and
whether Cambourne Station is at Cambourne north or Cambourne south are yet to be confirmed. This
information will be confirmed as part of EWR Co’s statutory consultation in 2022.
EWR Co requests that a further requirement is included within wording of the emerging policy wording for the allocation, to ensure that any additional development at Cambourne does not prejudice the preferred EWR route alignment (once announced) nor the delivery of EWR.
