10. References in the vision to new development not being overbearing or overwhelming are unclear in applicability to the new town as are references to development complementing rural vistas and the existing Fen Edge landscape. We had suggested in earlier comments that the vision should make reference to the vision for the new town included in the adopted Waterbeach New Town Supplementary Plan. This has not been referred to in either the vision or the supporting text.

The recognition of the need to provide increased health provision capacity as part of the Waterbeach New Town is recognised and acknowledged. The details of which will need to be discussed with the NHS Cambridge and Peterborough CCG and the developer as part of the Waterbeach New Town Planning process to ensure that the right provision is made at the right time to support the growth location. In the interim period, the GP practice is working with the CCG to reconfigure the premises and are confident that as a result will have the capacity to support the existing practice demands and the expected increase in patient numbers until the new premises are developed. Once the new premises are operational (currently scheduled for 2027) it is proposed that the existing surgery in Waterbeach will close.

Core Objective 2
This should refer to prioritising non-motorised users and public transport rather than non-vehicular routes.

Objective 1.v.
We wish to re-iterate our previous comments and suggest changing Objective 1.v to read: There should be safe, attractive and direct routes between the Village and New Town prioritised for non-motorised users.

Objective 1.vi.
The statement under Objective 1.vi is confusing, in asserting that vehicle access should be convenient but not direct, and would benefit from further explanation. In this regard, and as noted in connection with Objective 1.v, we would highlight the specific example of direct vehicular access for village residents to the relocated railway station, allowed for under the station planning permission, and in turn also the reference within Local Plan Policy SS/6 3 to direct road access on a limited and controlled basis.
