Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 29690

Received: 02/02/2015

Respondent: Brookgate

Agent: Bidwells

Representation Summary:

The emphasis of the movement principles must be promotion of non-car and active modes of travel, delivering a highly accessible development. The principles must recognise that CNFE will generate additional vehicle trips. A key principle needs to include 'enhance the Milton Road corridor to ensure that traffic can move efficiently in appropriate locations'.

Cambridgeshire CC Transport Strategy (Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire) and associated strategic transport modelling significantly underestimates development opportunities in CNFE. The TSCSC recommendations (and proposed City Deal schemes) don't adequately address existing highway network constraints or consider measures required to unlock the full potential of CNFE.
