The Wildlife Trust would like to see specific mention of biodiversity in the vision statement. We suggest that "opportunities to enhance the environmental assets" be changed to "opportunities to enhance the existing environmental assets and create new green space to benefit biodiversity."

The Wildlife Trust supports the extension of the boundary to include the Chesterton Siding Triangle, as this area is included in the site boundary for the new railway station, so should be included as part of the same unit. However, we would like to stress that in the approved station plans, this area is earmarked for species-rich grassland as part of ecological mitigation, and NOT for pedestrian/cycleways.

Question 9

Received: 02/02/2015
Respondent: Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire & Northamptonshire Wildlife Trust
The Wildlife Trust supports principle M, in particular the recognition of the importance of biodiversity features being part of a well-connected network.
As watercourses are included, we suggest a change to "...a network of green and blue spaces..."
We also suggest removing the word "attractive" as this is a very subjective idea and not relevant to benefitting biodiversity.
