4.2 KEY STRUCTURING ELEMENTS (FIXES)
PRIMARY MOVEMENT ACCESS
Street network provides direct routes for car travel, which means that cars will become the preferred mode of transport within the development. Instead of allowing car through-traffic inside the site, ensure that car trips must go out and around the edge of the development. Walking and cycling routes for local trips should always be shorter and more convenient than the equivalent journey by car.

Chapter 3 'Primary movement and access' must first describe how active travel and public transport will be designed and given priority before describing private car access to the site.

Page 46 under 'Strategic walking and cycling connections 'text should say that the developers will deliver each one of the listed points as a Fix, plus additional point sregarding design.

Page 46 statement should be modified to add 'direct, safe, continuous, attractive and ith elements that design-out crime, enhance personal security such as strong natural surveillance, nearby active uses and buildings that face the route.'

Should explicitly specify that developments must follow the guidance specified in the Cambridge Cycle Parking Guide for New Residential Developments or any document that supersedes the current Cycle Parking Guide. SPD should also consider other guidance (sources suggested in representation)

Page 40 / 41 - car parks proposed induce traffic, do not build these car parks with access from the village of Waterbeach. Instead, focus on creating highly attractive sustainable travel option.

Page 45 must be modified to say 'cycle routes will have segregated cycleways with separate footways, with ample verges on either side to support tree planting and visibility splays in an environment that feels safe'
