Stapleford & Great Shelford Neighbourhood Plan Submission Version

Stapleford & Great Shelford Neighbourhood Plan Submission Version

Representation ID: 200593

Received: 05/02/2025

Respondent: Cambridge Group of the Ramblers

Representation Summary:

Chapter 10 - Active Travel: We support improvements to the active travel network, including the bridge across the River Cam at Great Shelford and upgrades to the Haverhill Road path. We also emphasize securing Jenny’s Path as an off-road bridleway and recommend a permissive path agreement to ensure its future use. Additionally, we call for efforts to keep the railway underpass open year-round for walkers, cyclists, and equestrians.

Chapter 11 - Countryside Access and Enhancements: We agree with the policy to protect and improve countryside access, noting the lack of public routes and fragmented permissive paths. We advocate for long-term agreements for these paths and for reinstating missing signage. We support creating new paths with Public Right of Way status and the proposed off-road footpath along Granhams Road. We also stress the need to upgrade permissive paths near Nine Wells to Public Rights of Way, given potential impacts from infrastructure projects. We support the creation of new open spaces near Nine Wells.
