TTP continues to grow, in particular its core consulting activities are expanding rapidly. To support this growth and deliver for its expanding client base, there is a continuing need to create additional office and research space on the TTP Campus. It is critical that the new Local Plan policies support this. The Campus opened in Spring 2023 following planning approval in 2018 and a Section 73 permission granted in 2020 (S/4535/19/VC). The Campus has been the recipient of a number of major design awards including the Greater Cambridge Design and Construction Award 2024 and more recently in October 2024, winning the national Corporate Workplace Award from British Council of Offices which is one of the most prestigious awards in the country.

The TTP Campus at Melbourn post-dates the South Cambridgeshire Local Plan 2018 and consequentially has no specific designation in that Plan. We welcome the designation of the TTP Campus at Melbourn as an Established Employment Area in the countryside.

If the Site remains designated as an ‘Established Employment Area in the countryside’, it is important that the proposed requirement for developments to ‘reflect their location’ is considered having regard to the aims of the policy as set out in the Supporting Information, namely to support businesses to locate, grow and evolve, and that the provisions of the Local Plan are clarified to make clear that applications within Established Employment Areas on the edges of villages will be assessed having regard to their village
location.

It is clear that a Local Plan that is positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy should identify the TTP Campus as a site on which new employment development should be supported, and (having regard to the Councils’ own Supporting Information to ‘Policy S/DE) it should be designated as being part of the Melbourn DDE.
