Representation ID: 202826
Received: 29/01/2026
Respondent: Cambridge City Council Liberal Democrat Group

Policy S/NEC: North East Cambridge
Representation ID: 202830
Received: 29/01/2026
Respondent: Cambridge City Council Liberal Democrat Group

Railway (new pedestrian/cycle bridge to Chesterton Fen); " this should be called Fen Road and we would support the safeguarding of land on the NEC site to allow for a future road traffic bridge as well as a bridge for cycles and pedestrians, should Network Rail agree in the future to remove the level crossing and instead put in place a bridge (or tunnel).

We support this policy but would like to make clearer that development on this site coming forward should enhance and improve on the current building rather than the less onerous suggestion that it does not make it worse. Can the supporting text be updated to make this clearer.
