New searchThis approach is encouraged as it expands the economic benefits of the City and the larger settlements throughout Greater Cambridge. It maintains the strength of the city core while stretching other jobs and homes along transport links, providing connections to other market towns. However, this spatial strategy requires strong coordination to deliver complex infrastructure and development projects. Whittlesford is located on an existing well served transport corridor with railway station and further growth in this area would create a number of benefits and represent sustainable development . The existing railway infrastructure is under-utilised and housing growth as proposed by Grosvenor would represent an efficient form of development without the longer timescales involved in most major strategic schemes which are reliant on major funding and delays in delivery. The attached story boards set out Grosvenor’s vision for Whittlesford Railway Village and the overall benefits that can be created by positively responding to the four big themes of the emerging Local Plan. This would be consistent with the NPPF and one of the key recommendations in the CPIER report to provide growth along transport corridor.

The adopted Local Plans acknowledged the commitment to an early review of their local plans beginning in 2019. This decision to take forward the early review of the Local Plans was made in order to establish what impact the anticipated changed infrastructure landscape and economic growth in the area might have on housing need and other aspects of spatial and transport planning. Further, during Examination of the individual plans, a number of issues were highlighted for specific attention. These related to the assessment of housing needs, progress in delivering the development strategy and in particular the proposed new settlements and provision to meet the requirements of caravan dwellers.
