Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 29350

Received: 18/12/2014

Respondent: Dr Alan Mayes

Representation Summary:

Access to the new railway station would be significantly improved if Network Rail's disused private access road from Milton Road to Chesterton sidings along the north side of Cambridge Business Park was made into a public footpath and cycleway. It would be more pleasant than the foot/cycle path planned for Cowley Road and it would enable the Crown Estate to install side entrances on the North side of the Cambridge Business Park to shorten the walk between offices on the Cambridge Business Park and the new railway station and encourage travel to the Cambridge Business Park by train.
