S/SCP/WHD Whittlesford Parkway Station Area, Whittlesford Bridge
Land East of Whittlesford Highway Depot (HELAA site 59406)
Station Rd West Whittlesford (HELAA site 59385)
We support the new policy area S/SCP/WHD Whittlesford Parkway Station Area, Whittlesford Bridge however due to the sustainable location we believe this policy area should be expanded eastwards to include the land to the east of Whittlesford Highways Depot. This site immediately adjoins the policy area S/SCP/WHD and inclusion of this site would act as a very logical extension.
Furthermore, the policy is limited to "redevelopment" of the existing built up area and the inclusion of the adjoining, well contained site to the east would facilitate much needed further growth. The greenfield site would support the strategy and follow the redevelopment of the brownfield and as it is an unconstrained site can be delivered in a timely manner.
