Policy WS/CF: Community, sports, and leisure facilities

Representation ID: 202037

Received: 27/01/2026

Respondent: Skateboard Cambridge CIC

Representation Summary:

With reference to S/PRIA/EG and the Elizabeth Way bridge and Underpass(es) cultural hub community project, the project sits in catchment area of 5 adjacent wards, connected by a shared infrastructure link, the Elizabeth Way bridge and related underpasses. The area sits within a public realm improvement area with potential to adapt leftover indoors and outdoors spaces for cultural and sports programmes, which would work well in line with the Cambridge tradition of skating and urban skating, providing indoors and outdoors recreation and youth engagement.
