Representation ID: 31773

Received: 02/10/2017

Respondent: Cambridge Past, Present and Future

Representation Summary:

Comparison and lessons learned should be given from the newer developments around Cambridge, such as Eddington, NW Cambridge site, Trumpington, CB1, etc. to understand what has worked and what has not. Lessons should be learnt and mistakes not repeated, especially as the traffic and congestion of the area is already considered high. In addition, the design and materials palette need to be contextual and based on local vernacular, not just contemporary because that is the trend at the moment.
